JeNu Biosciences was founded by a leading Washington bio scientist and a medical technology entrepreneur. While working on an ultrasound device for topical drug delivery, they became curious about using ultrasound to improve cosmetic skin care product delivery. High energy ultrasound has been proven effective at pushing drugs through the skin, but in the process cells are damaged and high heat causes intense pain.

JeNu Biosciences was founded by a leading Washington bio scientist and a medical technology entrepreneur. While working on an ultrasound device for topical drug delivery, they became curious about using ultrasound to improve cosmetic skin care product delivery. High energy ultrasound has been proven effective at pushing drugs through the skin, but in the process cells are damaged and high heat causes intense pain. But since cosmetics only need to be absorbed into the top layer of skin rather than through the skin like drugs they thought a low energy ultrasound device might work. After many attempts they proved that low energy ultrasound wouldn`t help on its own. At the same moment, they had the idea that lead to the JeNu System. Rather than using ultrasound energy to vibrate cells in the skin to open up pathways, what if they vibrated microspheres on the skin to open the pathways. This idea lead to patent application 20120271222 and JeNu Biosciences.   Launched in 2009, JeNu spent close to $10MM and 5 years on research, development and engineering. JeNu Biosciences is now proud to present the JeNu System. It`s the first pain free, at home, quick way to increase absorption of your favorite skin care products. In just one minute per target area per day the JeNu system is clinically proven to increase absorption by up to 12 times, and improve the efficacy of skin care products by up to 40% in just 7 days.
