Ethical Concerns with Animal Testing

Labskin eliminates the need for animal testing, providing a humane and ethically responsible alternative that complies with global regulations, ensuring research integrity without compromising values.

02.

High Costs and Long Timelines

Traditional testing methods, such as animal studies or extensive clinical trials, are expensive and time-consuming. Labskin streamlines research processes, enabling quicker, more cost-efficient product development and a faster path to market.

03.

Limited Human Relevance in Animal Models

Animal-derived models often fail to replicate human skin behaviour accurately. Labskin offers a human-relevant model, delivering more precise and reliable results that reflect real-world human responses.

04.

Challenges in Testing Skin Sensitivity and Irritation

Labskin allows safe, ethical testing for potential irritants, allergens, or sensitisers in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products, eliminating the need to risk harm to human volunteers.

05.

Difficulty in Predicting Human Skin Responses

Labskin supports precise predictions of how human skin reacts to environmental stimuli like UV radiation, pollutants, and chemical ingredients, improving safety and efficacy across products.

06.

Lack of Personalisation in Dermatological Research

With its ability to mimic specific skin types—such as dry, aging, or diseased skin—Labskin enables personalised research and product development tailored to diverse consumer needs and medical conditions.

07.

Meeting Regulatory Standards

Labskin helps companies achieve regulatory compliance with validated alternatives to animal testing, simplifying the process of bringing new products to market while adhering to strict guidelines.

08.

Replicating the Skin Microbiome

Labskin supports the growth of a skin microbiome, making it an invaluable tool for studying interactions between products and the skin’s natural microbiota—key for improving skin health and tackling conditions.

09.

Skin Aging and Disease Research

Labskin enables the study of aging processes, UV damage, and dermatological conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis, paving the way for more effective treatments and preventive care.

10.

Optimising Cosmetic Formulations

The model allows for the testing of new cosmetic formulations in real time to assess how ingredients, delivery systems, or product combinations affect skin, helping brands to optimise product performance before clinical trials or market launch.
