the science of skin that repairs itself

I don’t think about skin the way most skincare brands do. I think about it the way I think about the body: as a system of cells that need energy, signaling, and the right conditions to repair.

What ages skin isn’t just time. It’s declining cellular energy. As NAD+ levels drop with age, the skin’s ability to repair damage, defend against stress, and regenerate slows down. That’s what causes the dullness, fine lines, and reduced resilience you start to notice over time.

The products I recommend work at that level. Not surface hydration. Not temporary brightening. Actual cellular support — so your skin functions closer to how it did when it was younger.

why I use these products

I’m selective about what I put my name behind. Skincare should address the biology of aging, not just its appearance.

Young Goose formulates around longevity science supporting cellular energy, repair, and mitochondrial function.

These are the products I personally use and recommend. Used individually or as a system, they target the root of how skin ages.

  • VAMPIRE EXOSOMES

    This is one of the most advanced regenerative technologies in skincare right now. Platelet-derived exosomes carry signaling molecules that tell skin cells to repair and rebuild, the same biological language the body uses to heal itself.

  • BLUE PEPTIDE SPRAY

    My first step after cleansing. It supports mitochondrial function and NAD+ balance at the barrier level, helping the skin feel more energized and prepared for the rest of the routine, including red light therapy.

  • YOUTH DAILY

    Daytime cellular support that helps maintain NAD+ activity and defend the skin against daily oxidative stress from environmental exposure, blue light, and other external stressors.

  • L.A.D.R.

    If you use red light therapy, this is the piece most people are missing. L.A.D.R. is a light-activated serum designed to support DNA repair under red and near-infrared light exposure, layered with the Blue Peptide Spray, it can improve red light’s effectiveness up to 10x at the cellular level.

what makes these different

  • Address cellular energy and NAD+ decline, not just surface symptoms
  • Support the skin’s own repair systems rather than overriding them
  • Backed by longevity science, not trend-driven formulation
  • Effective alone, and designed to work as a layered system
  • Compatible with red light therapy and other biohacking protocols

red light therapy works better when your skin is ready for it

Red and near-infrared light stimulate cellular repair, but results depend on how well your skin can receive that signal.

When the skin is inflamed, depleted, or compromised, that response is reduced.

Bio C Peptide Spray primes the skin by supporting NAD⁺ balance and barrier function, while L.A.D.R. activates under red light to support DNA repair and regeneration.

Together, they help red light therapy work more effectively by improving how the skin responds — not by increasing intensity.

Red light is the signal. This is how skin responds.

Skin doesn’t age because of time. It ages because its cells lose the energy and signaling they need to repair. These are the products I trust to address that directly.

you may be thinking...

Do I need to use all of these products?

No. Each product addresses a specific part of the cellular aging process and can be used on its own. If you’re new to longevity skincare, start with one or two – YOUTH Reset and the Blue Peptide Spray are a strong foundation.

How does NAD+ skincare actually work?

NAD+ is a molecule the body produces naturally to fuel cellular repair and energy production. As we age, levels decline, which is why skin’s ability to recover slows down. These formulas deliver NAD+ precursors and activators topically, supporting the skin’s own repair systems from the outside in.

What if I don’t use red light therapy?

You don’t need red light to benefit from these products. L.A.D.R. and the Blue Peptide Spray support cellular repair and barrier function regardless. Red light therapy amplifies the results – it’s not a requirement.

How do these fit into an existing routine?

They layer easily into what you’re already doing. Start with the Adaptogenic Cleanser, apply the Blue Peptide Spray or Amplifying Essence first, then your targeted serums, then moisturizer and SPF in the morning. The system is designed to integrate, not replace.

Are these products Dr. Medina’s personal recommendations?

Yes. These are the products she uses and has spoken about publicly based on the underlying science of cellular aging and her own experience with the formulas.
