The overgrowth of C. acnes, a bacteria that makes up 80-90% of all bacteria on your face¹ is a major cause of acne. They love to feed on sebum; the oil produced on your face. These play a big role in the amount of sebum on your skin:
Stress: How much you sweat
Diet: What you eat
Hormones: Your cycle
Genetics: Skin type

Bacteriophages (phages) are harmless viruses that target and kill bacteria. Every 48 hours, half of all bacteria on the planet are killed by phage.
How does this work?
1. They attach themselves to the bacteria using tail fibers
2. Phage DNA from the head is injected into the bacterial cell
3. Over 100 new phages are produced and injected
until the bacteria bursts, releasing the phages to attack more bacteria.
At Phyla's lab we identified phages that target and kill C. acnes bacteria.
Each bottle of our Phyla Acne Fighting Serum provides your skin with a billion+ army of phages to kill the bad bacteria that's causing unhealthy skin. Over time, your microbiome becomes more balanced with good bacteria. The result is healthy skin.
Don’t just take our word for it, check out the data from our clinical trial and our customers’ amazing results.
