Manufacturing Capabilities Built to Pharmaceutical-Grade Standards
Trilogy Laboratories operates a single, fully integrated GMP ISO 22716-certified manufacturing facility in Fort Myers, Florida — designed to deliver private label and custom skincare to clinical-grade standards across a wide order range. The facility houses formulation, production, in-house testing, filling, labeling, packaging, and quality control under one roof, supported by a team that combines a Doctor of Pharmacy, cosmetic chemists, licensed estheticians, and brand consultants.
Co-founded by Dr. Kristen Flaharty, PharmD, and Dr. Patrick M. Flaharty, MD, FAACS, Trilogy operates the facility to pharmaceutical-grade discipline — active ingredient concentrations measured against clinical effect, formulations tested for stability across their full shelf life, and documentation produced to the standards expected by physician practices, retailers, and regulators.
