NeuroSkin Science is the modern validation of an enduring belief—hinou-dokon—that skin and mind are deeply, intrinsically connected. Where Japanese wisdom has long honored this harmony, science now illuminates its pathways.
Stressed Mind, Stressed Skin
From the earliest stages of human development, skin and brain grow from the same embryonic stem cells. They continue to communicate through life—through shared signaling pathways and the nervous system that lives in the skin. When the mind is under pressure, skin responds, and vice versa.
Transforming Science into Ritual
Founded in Tokyo in 2010, the Tatcha Institute exists for one purpose: to translate the principles of Japanese wisdom into science rigorous enough to prove them. Every scientist and researcher is dedicated to the study of NeuroSkin Science, the modern validation of the skin-mind connection.
“Caring for the skin is caring for the mind. This is biologically true: our skin and brain develop along the same stem cell line so that our skin both affects and reflects our internal state, even how we think and feel. ”
— Vicky Tsai, Tatcha Founder
