Our Team
Dr. Don Wayne Berry - Founder
As is often the case with the great companies in American history, the inspiration for the innovation sometimes comes from the most unexpected of circumstances. For CelSana and Don Wayne Berry, M.D., retired Texas heart surgeon, the spark of innovation was the direct result of something dramatically simple.
A neighbor provided Dr. Berry with a salve for his troubled skin and he put it on his hand. The results were dramatic. The M.D. discovery was so remarkable in fact that Dr. Berry devoted the next decade of his life to research, testing and providing for the commercialization of a product that is going to change the world of skin care.
