Danné Montague-King is a respected botanical scientist, cosmetic chemist, and the founder of DMK Skincare (Danne Montague-King), an international leader in paramedical skin revision.
Background and Philosophy
Personal Motivation: As a youth, Dr. King suffered from severe acne and was dissatisfied with the conventional skin care options available at the time. This experience motivated him to research and develop effective, long-lasting skin treatments.
Scientific Approach: Over a career spanning more than 50 years, he developed the "Danné Method of Natural Pharmacology".
Core Concept: The DMK concept is rooted in biochemistry and aims to "Remove, Rebuild, Protect, and Maintain" healthy skin function, rather than relying on quick fixes or beauty trends.
Key Innovations
Enzyme Therapy: The cornerstone of the DMK system is its signature Enzyme Therapy, a treatment designed to restore the skin's natural enzymatic activity and homeostasis.
Product Development: He created the DMK Skincare™ line, which uses botanical-based, paramedical formulations.
Other Products: King is also the creator of the popular pain-relief gel Biofreeze™.
