What you see in this video is a state-of-the-art FDA-Registered 503B Outsourcing Facility, 37,500 square feet of contiguous, purpose-built manufacturing space designed from the ground up to meet and exceed CGMP standards for dermatology.
Every material is sourced and tested before it enters production. Every batch is prepared, tested, and documented by trained professionals working in controlled sterile and non-sterile environments. Environmental conditions, air quality, pressure, and particulate levels are continuously monitored to ensure consistency from batch to batch. Quality is built into the process from the beginning.
Even the water used in manufacturing is purified through a highly specialized USP-grade system, one that took more than a year to design, install, and validate. At the formulation level, there is no such thing as a minor detail.
SKNV’s facility was built to pharmaceutical-grade standards from the ground up. In-house laboratory capabilities cover full quality control, microbiology, and raw material testing, so nothing is outsourced, nothing is unknown, and every step is traceable.
Large-batch CGMP manufacturing, continuous environmental monitoring, and validated systems at every stage produce the same quality medication every time. Your patients are not receiving formulations that vary run to run.
SKNV controls every stage of the process from manufacturing, quality, labeling, and fulfillment, all within one organization. Every medication is supported by a documented chain of quality, with oversight at every stage, from raw ingredients to the final medication your patient receives.
