Bio Derm Technology

The Science Behind Transdermal Delivery.

Transdermal delivery isn't new — it's the same technology behind medical nicotine patches and hormone therapy. We've applied it to wellness. Here's why it outperforms everything else.

Bypasses Digestion Entirely

Active ingredients cross the skin barrier directly into systemic circulation — no stomach acid, no liver metabolism, no GI discomfort.

8-Hour Steady-State Release

The Bio Derm matrix delivers a controlled, continuous release profile — no spike-and-crash, no second dose to remember.

Zero First-Pass Metabolism

Up to 70% of oral supplement ingredients are lost before reaching the bloodstream. Transdermal delivery eliminates this loss entirely.

The Problem with Pills & Powders

Every supplement you swallow must survive stomach acid, navigate first-pass liver metabolism, and compete for absorption at the gut wall. Up to 70% of active ingredients are lost before they ever reach your bloodstream. The patch skips all of it.


How the Skin Delivers.

The skin isn't just a barrier — it's a delivery channel. The Soma Bio Derm matrix drives active ingredients through the stratum corneum and into the dermal capillary network, continuously, over 8 hours.

01

Stratum Corneum Penetration

Soma's matrix uses optimized lipophilic carriers engineered to pass through the outermost skin layer — the stratum corneum — without disruption. This maintains skin health and barrier integrity throughout the full wear period.

02

Dermal Capillary Uptake

Once past the skin barrier, active ingredients diffuse into the dermal layer where the capillary network absorbs them directly into systemic circulation — completely bypassing the GI tract and liver.

03

Zero First-Pass Metabolism

Oral supplements undergo "first-pass metabolism" in the liver immediately after gut absorption — which deactivates a significant portion of active compounds before they reach target tissues. Transdermal delivery eliminates this entirely.

04

Steady-State Plasma Levels

Unlike the spike-and-crash profile of oral dosing, the Bio Derm matrix delivers a controlled, steady release over 8 hours. No peak. No trough. Consistent plasma levels that work with your body's natural rhythms — all day.

Four Seconds. Eight Hours.

No mixing. No measuring. No second dose. The Soma system removes every friction point from your wellness routine.

01

Apply to Clean Skin

Adhere the patch to clean, dry, hairless skin on your upper arm, shoulder, or back. Press firmly for 10–15 seconds to ensure adhesion.

02

Absorb Continuously

The Bio Derm matrix begins releasing active ingredients immediately, maintaining a steady plasma concentration throughout the day. No spike. No crash. No second dose to remember.

03

Live Without Thinking About It

Wear during your workout, at your desk, or overnight. The patch works automatically — no alarm reminders, no pre/post-workout windows to hit, no schedule to maintain.

04

Remove & Rotate

After up to 8 hours, remove the patch cleanly. Rotate application sites daily to maintain skin health. One patch. One day. Consistent results, built into your routine with zero effort.

Why Patches Win.

More Than Delivery.

Every time you see it on your arm, you remember the goal you set that morning. The patch works physically and mentally — simultaneously.

01

Set Your Goal

Before you apply, set your intention for the day. Say it out loud. Make it real.

02

Apply the Patch

Peel. Press. Four seconds. The delivery system begins — and so does your reminder.

03

Remember All Day

Every glance at the patch triggers your goal. Gym, desk, mirror — it follows you.

04

Remove & Reflect

End of day: remove the patch, assess your goal. Set tomorrow's intention. Repeat.

"The smartest thing you'll do for your body today takes four seconds to apply."
— The Soma Philosophy

Just Apply.
Keep Going.

30 patches. 30 days. One goal at a time. Peel. Press. Live your day.
