DefenAge Skincare, a manufacturer and distributor of skincare products focused on skin longevity, has made the 2023 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America.
The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and hiring challenges. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000—with the fast growth that requires—is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”
Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022.
According to Inc.’s metrics, DefenAge is among the top half percent of privately owned companies in the United States. The ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful independent, entrepreneurial businesses.
In the direct-to-consumer online channel, DefenAge boasts an impressive re-order rate at 42% of customers who placed more than one order, and an $812 life-time customer value with a new customer acquisition cost below the average order value.
Furthermore, the products are well accepted by customers with a top-tier customer satisfaction rate and extremely low return & replacement rate, at 0.5%. The company owns an extensive intellectual property portfolio, including 4 registered trademarks, 7 issued and allowed patents, and multiple patent-pending applications covering skin anti-aging, melasma, wound healing, hair and nail growth and cornea wounds.
Earlier this year, DefenAge’s 150K Hair Follicle Serum was honored as a 2023 NewBeauty Award Winner for “Best Hair Growth Serum.”
“The Inc. 5000 is the ultimate benchmark of entrepreneurial success, honoring our impressive growth and an increase of over 3-times in the number of employees through the past three years,” shares Nikolay Turovets, Ph.D., DefenAge co-founder and CEO. “This is our first time on the Inc. 5000 list, but it’s only the beginning for DefenAge.”
