Harsh actives and surface correction had their era. The next era belongs to correspondence biology, defensible science, and founders who ship innovation without cutting corners. Ecosystems that thrive are non-toxic, resilient, coordinated, and built for longevity — whether it’s biology, markets, families, or skin. Serucell isn’t a brand that adopted cellular science. It’s cellular science that adopted markets, consumers, and scalability — and it’s only getting started.

Board-Certified Wound Specialist Physician (CWSP) & Research Scientist

Founders should invent science and invent markets. Dr. Walter Neto, M.D. did both by ignoring the standard playbook.

As a Board-Certified Wound Specialist (CWSP), his medical career came from the most unforgiving proving ground — chronic wounds, burns, inflamed barriers, and skin that had given up. But he didn’t stop at treating damage. He studied why the damage healed or failed to heal in the first place.

Through early research spanning oncology biology, tissue architecture engineering, burns, graft-free wound modeling, and stem-cell signaling science, a consistent theme emerged that most of medicine and skincare still overlook:

Skin repairs itself because cells communicate — not simply because they grow faster. Healing follows coordination. Bounce follows correspondence. Structure follows signaling.

The Serucell Breakthrough

That truth became the cornerstone of how Serucell KFS Serum was developed. Instead of “correcting” skin from the outside, the approach starts with restoring the internal correspondence between keratinocytes (barrier architects) and fibroblasts (dermal infrastructure builders). When that conversation resumes:

The Result: Skin That Heals Smarter

✓ Inflammation falls instead of flaring
✓ Barriers rebuild instead of breaking  
✓ Texture smooths instead of roughing
✓ Tone evens instead of dulling
✓ Elasticity returns instead of sagging

The result isn’t temporary surface correction.
It’s durable dermal rebound delivered topically through lightweight, hypoallergenic cosmetic signaling fractions — designed to be compliant for real consumers and recover procedural or inflamed skin without being classified as a drug.

To defend the science moat, Dr. Neto secured patents around the fraction extraction and stabilization methods that make KFS Serum unique, ensuring the company owns the process, proof, and production backbone, not just the product outcome.

Why this matters today:

Consumers don’t want more irritation, more force, more acids, or more harsh stimulation pretending to be “innovation.” They want fewer steps, less inflammation, better bounce, better results they can feel and see over time. That’s the demand Serucell was built to capture and scale against — directly, clearly, and without compromise.

Beyond credentials and compounds:

Dr. Neto lives in Huntington, West Virginia with his wife, daughters, and three golden retrievers. Not because it looks good in a bio, but because it reflects the belief system driving his work:

Ecosystems that thrive are non-toxic, resilient, coordinated, and built for longevity — whether it’s biology, markets, families, or skin.

This isn’t skincare that borrowed science.
This is science that finally shipped skincare.

And the future roadmap is already clear:
The next era of skin health belongs to formulations that deliver better signals, better structure, and better coordination — not just better marketing gloss.




Dr. Brett Jarrell, Serucell Co-Founder and Chief Quality Officer

Dr. Brett Jarrell, M.D. FACEP

Founder

FOUNDER DNA WITH A QUALITY NERVOUS SYSTEM.
Some founders build companies. The best founders build the quality system that lets the company survive, scale, and stay trusted. Dr. Brett Jarrell, M.D. is that founder at Serucell.

Background & Expertise

He practices Emergency Medicine out of Pikeville, Kentucky—medicine’s highest-pressure decision environment—where precision, speed, and variance intolerance aren’t optional, they’re selection forces. 
His education laid a biology-heavy foundation that’s locked into evidence-based rigor:

Education & Credentials

• Bachelor of Arts in Biology — Wittenberg University
• Master of Arts in Biology — Marshall University
• Medical Degree — Marshall University School of Medicine
• Emergency Medicine Residency — West Virginia University
• Board Certified — American Board of Emergency Medicine
• Diplomate, Board-Certified Physician — Emergency Medicine

Role at Serucell

• Overseeing all aspects of quality control for KFS Serum production processes
• Validating sourcing, donor matching, variance limits, and production consistency
• Ensuring cosmetic claims stay compliant, defensible, and safely within regulatory boundaries
• Scaling product QC infrastructure for clinician, retail, and consumer distribution rails

Why This Matters

Consumers and clinicians don’t want more noise. They want truth and reliability:
Does it work? Can it scale? Will QC show cracks when biology gets inflamed or procedural skin needs to recover?
Jarrell ensures the answer stays yes.
He lives in Huntington, West Virginia remaining tied to the Appalachian medical and research corridor that shaped and continues to inform his work.
Dr. Jarrell doesn’t guard quality so innovation can slow down.
He guards it so innovation can ship faster and scale further—without risk to integrity or compliance.
Because the future of top-performing skincare won’t belong to the loudest chemistry.
It will belong to the chemistry that signals clean and survives QC clean.
