HDS Cosmetics Lab, Inc., (dba “DDF”) is a pioneering marketer of doctor-based, cosmeceutical skincare products sold under the Doctor’s Dermatologic Formula brand name, with a broad product line offering treatment solutions for all major skin conditions, including aging, acne, hyper-pigmentation, sun damage, and sensitive allergic. During its partnership with North Castle, DDF solidified operations by establishing a professional co-pack network and fortifying supply chain capabilities, transforming the new product development process, reducing SKU complexity, and strengthening the management team. In January 2007, the company was sold to Procter & Gamble, which at the time was targeting Prestige Skincare as a key growth category.
