Product philosophy that insists on undeniable effects, and the secret to growth in bad conditions

After all our work, we released a hair serum and LED mask, but the response from the market was cold.
It was difficult for a company that had just taken the first step to start the LED mask market that no one has challenged before. However, the more difficult the situation, the more I thought about my desperate hair loss experience. I focused on the product's effect under the ideology of “insisting on the very best effect” without compromise. As a result, we were able to spread news about CELLRETURN through customer reviews and word-of-mouth without any advertising.

2014

Jan.: Launched 1st generation CELLRETURN LED Mask

Apr.: Launched CELLRETURN Hair Serum

2011

Jul.: Incorporated into Cell Return Co., Ltd.

Jan.: Began developing near infrared ray scalp care devices

2006-2010

New opportunities discovered by Chance and Crisis

One day, I woke up in shock. Dozens of strands of hair were scattered on my pillow.
My hair loss research began because of my own sudden hair loss concerns. After analyzing herbal ingredients that may be helpful and testing them for years, we learned about the efficacy of near-infrared rays and tried to figure out how to maximize that effect over many years. Then, we started conducting serious research on the principles of near-infrared rays and LED. This research has been the driving force that has made CELLRETURN what it is today.
