What's Included

SKIN DISCOVERY TEST

Parallel's Skin Microbiome Discovery Kit allows you to understand your skin health and age to support clarity and better aging. Parallel uses the most advanced sequencing technology available today. This kit contains four swabs and two oil strips to test different areas of your facial skin microbiome. The resulting skin health report provides an assessment of your skin microbiome type, skin age, bacterial assessment, as well as holistic recommendations across food and skincare ingredients. We also identify bacterial overgrowth associated with acne-prone and eczema-prone skin, along with imbalances associated with other skin issues correlated with melasma, rosacea, psoriasis, and hidradenitis suppurativa. By understanding your skin microbiome, you can choose the right products at the right time. Conducting the test is easy, requiring less than a minute. Video tutorials and step-by-step instructions available with every kit. Results provided within 2-3 weeks.10-min consultation with Parallel physician included.

CUSTOM ACTIVE PHAGE SERUM (30 mL)

Your first bottle of Active Phage Serum (4-6 week supply) targeted for your skin microbiome type; selection to be shipped after results of your test are delivered. Our various phage serums have the ability to support eczema-prone and acne-prone skin, amongst others. With this bundle, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on your custom active phage serum.

Truly custom skincare!

After working with parallel, it's clear to me that they put the customer's health and experience over anything else. With "custom skincare" being an industry buzzword to repackage the same stuff nowadays, Parallel Health's scientific phage approach is a breath of fresh air.

Very professional & trustworthy, along with health from the inside out.

The facial swab process was easy to follow, and having the prep call with the doctor beforehand was a nice touch. Parallel Health is a very professional and trustworthy organization focused on a positive consumer experience and health from the inside out.

Dr. Shankar is the best!

Dr. Shankar is the best!!! I've had a skin condition for years that has been difficult to treat with antibiotics, and I really appreciated how knowledgeable and honest he was about my best treatment options. I felt like he was really there to help me, and I never felt pressured into a purchase (although, I did end up making one lol)

Stop wasting your time and get this!!

SKIN TEST: The swabbing process itself was user-friendly with clear instructions and only took a few minutes at home.

SKIN ANALYSIS: I found the skin health report to be super interesting and appreciated that Dr. Shankar walked me through my results so I could understand my skin better. I don't know of any other company that offers free 1:1 consultations with a physician.

SERUM: Just started using my phage serum (I'm #1 Phoenix for C. acnes bacteria) and it got rid of stubborn acne on my forehead that I've had for years!! Honestly would reach for this over a pimple patch. It's my go-to serum now.
