Greenwich, Conn. – October 14, 2026 -- Patients at The Hair LabTM in Greenwich can now discuss Acorn YOUTM Secretome, a hair and scalp product made from their own preserved hair follicle cells, as part of a consultation at NicholsMD.
NicholsMD is a Connecticut dermatology practice founded by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Kim Nichols. The Hair LabTM is its dedicated destination for personalized hair and scalp care at the Greenwich flagship.
The product is built from a patient's own follicle cells
Acorn describes YOUTM Secretome as a cell-free blend of signaling molecules, including exosomes, growth factors, peptides and proteins, that help cells communicate. The molecules are intended to support the scalp's follicle environment and natural hair renewal. The stated goals are stronger, thicker-looking hair and better hair amount and quality.
Because it comes from a patient's own cells, the company says it offers a highly tailored approach to care.
A consultation can include a scalp and follicle analysis
A visit may include a detailed scalp and follicle analysis so the care team can understand a patient's concerns and discuss options. The Hair LabTM also offers PRP (platelet-rich plasma), HydraScalp treatments, laser hair removal and home-care products such as Revian. Dr. Nichols and her team curate recommendations for each individual, and YOUTM Secretome is one option among them.
Nichols said the practice created The Hair LabTM to give patients a dedicated place to discuss hair and scalp concerns, and called the new product a distinctive option because it uses a patient's own preserved cells.
Acorn's founder visited the Greenwich team
Dr. Drew Taylor, founder and CEO of Acorn Biolabs, recently visited NicholsMD to meet Nichols and her team and present the company's cell-to-secretome platform. His doctoral research into hair follicle stem cells became the scientific foundation for Acorn and YOUTM Secretome. The visit gave the NicholsMD team a chance to learn about the product and discuss its place in the Hair Lab's professional protocols.
Patients interested in fuller-looking hair, in YOUTM Secretome, or in options for unwanted hair can schedule a consultation with the NicholsMD team.
