K&K Biotech, the parent company of K&K Skin Products, announces a major milestone in skincare innovation with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granting allowance for its revolutionary BioVer-X™ technology. The patent, “Cosmetic Compositions and Methods of Use” (Application No. 17/011,217), protects K&K’s proprietary formulations, which leverage advanced biotechnology to deliver anti-inflammatory and antioxidant skincare solutions. These innovations target key skin concerns such as wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks.
A Scientific Approach to Skincare Innovation:
Founded by Katie Uilk and Dr. Kristina Trujillo, K&K Biotech blends advanced biotechnology with natural ingredients to redefine skincare. Katie, a botanical skincare artisan, and Kristina, a biotech scientist, combined their expertise to develop solutions that work harmoniously with the skin’s natural healing process.
This patent represents a leap forward in skincare technology,” said Katie Uilk, CEO of K&K Biotech. “By uniting advanced biotechnology with natural ingredients, we’ve created solutions that are scientifically validated and accessible, empowering consumers to experience transformative skincare.”
The Science Behind BioVer-X™:
At the core of this patent is BioVer-X™, a groundbreaking molecule derived from resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant found in grape skins. While resveratrol is known for its ability to neutralize free radicals and reduce inflammation, BioVer-X™ amplifies these effects—delivering 10 times the anti-inflammatory power and 6 times the antioxidant benefits. This breakthrough technology powers K&K’s flagship product, BioVer-X™ Enhanced Antioxidant Serum, designed to repair skin, combat oxidative stress, and improve overall texture.
“This achievement validates our innovative work and reinforces our vision to revolutionize skincare with science-backed, accessible products,” added Dr. Kristina Trujillo, Chief Science Officer. “It’s a validation of the innovative work being done here in New Mexico and an exciting milestone for our team.”
Industry Recognition and Growth:
K&K Skin Products, the consumer-facing brand of K&K Biotech, is renowned for its commitment to purity and efficacy. Since its founding in 2018, K&K Skin Products has been disrupting the market and gaining recognition for its innovative approach to skincare. In its second year, the company was invited to the 
prestigious ECOLUXE Lounge gifting suites at the Sundance Film Festival and pre-Oscars, where BioVer-X™ debuted to top influencers and celebrities. K&K was also featured on Modern Living with Kathy Ireland, highlighting the efficacy of the BioVer-X™ Enhanced Antioxidant Serum. The company has also been nationally recognized in Texas Monthly Magazine and covered by local media outlets like Fine Lifestyles, Albuquerque Lifestyles, City Alive, and KRQE.

The company is actively pursuing certifications for regulatory approval internationally, beginning with the European Union. K&K is also working to obtain the INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) certification for BioVer-X™—a vital step toward meeting international standards.
“Global expansion is a key part of our vision,” said Katie Uilk, Co-Founder of K&K Biotech. “We aim to bring the transformative benefits of our products to consumers worldwide. Achieving certifications like INCI and EU regulatory approval is essential to achieving this goal.”
