  • Ep. 188 - John Oakley on Redefining Hair Loss Solutions with Dual-Wavelength LED Therapy
    2025/05/20

    Can a cap that emits specific light wavelengths truly reverse hair loss?

    In this episode of The Technology of Beauty, Dr. Grant Stevens sits down with John Oakley, CEO of REVIAN, to explore how their patented dual-wavelength LED therapy is transforming hair restoration. Unlike traditional laser devices, REVIAN’s lightweight, cordless cap uses both 620nm and 660nm light to stimulate nitric oxide production, reduce inflammation, and block DHT—all essential to regrowing thicker, healthier hair.

    With over 60 patents and clinical data showing significantly greater efficacy than competing therapies, REVIAN is leading a new wave in non-invasive hair restoration. It’s not just about technology—it’s about results. Dr. Stevens and John both use the device personally, and over 55% of users are now women, thanks in part to its ease of use, cordless design, and drug-free, side-effect-free approach.

    John shares why this dual-wavelength, LED-powered system is more effective than traditional laser caps and how REVIAN’s smart app brings real accountability to at-home treatment with a fully integrated therapeutic solution.

    In a powerful final segment, John opens up about his work in Guatemala with Unearth Hope, a nonprofit bringing basic healthcare to remote villages. His annual mission trips speak to a deeper commitment to healing—whether it’s through light-based therapy or hands-on community care. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation with one of the true innovators in beauty tech.

  • Ep. 185 - Dr. David Kirn on Optimizing Fat Grafting Efficiency with a Game-Changing Device
    2025/04/29

    Can one device transform the future of fat grafting? Join Dr. Grant Stevens on this compelling episode of The Technology of Beauty as he welcomes Dr. David Kirn, the innovative mind behind the Orchid device—a cutting-edge, all-in-one system engineered to simplify and optimize the fat grafting process. Designed with both efficiency and predictability in mind, Orchid enables surgeons to harvest, purify, and re-inject fat using a completely mechanical, self-contained system that eliminates the need for centrifuges, decanting, or a complex setup.

    In this episode, David explains how his years in aesthetic surgery and a longstanding frustration with the inefficiencies of traditional fat grafting led to the development of this revolutionary tool. By using an FDA-approved absorbent material to remove oil and aqueous content, the Orchid device delivers a consistently high-quality fat graft with minimal waste and maximum viability. With each cycle taking only minutes, the system allows for fat grafting procedures to be performed in-office, significantly cutting down time and overhead for physicians while offering long-lasting, natural results for patients.

    David also shares insights into the FDA pathway, future product expansions, and how Orchid could position itself as a market disruptor—not just in facial fat grafting, but also in breast and body applications. If you're interested in the technology reshaping aesthetic medicine, this is one episode you don’t want to miss.
