What makes The DNA Bar different from other DNA testing companies?
At The DNA Bar, we go beyond sending you a generic lab report. Every test includes a 30-minute concierge tele-visit with a licensed professional who explains your results, helps you apply them, and guides you toward the right products, foods, or routines that match your DNA. Think of it as science paired with luxury skincare and wellness.
-
Are your tests medical or cosmetic?
Our tests are diagnostic-quality and performed in CLIA-waived and accredited partner laboratories, but they are designed for wellness and self-care, not to diagnose, treat, or cure disease. Instead, they reveal your unique genetic blueprint for skin, hair, nutrition, and overall vitality.
-
How does the testing process work?
It’s simple:
1. Order your kit online.
2. Collect your cheek or hair swab at home.
3. Return it using the enclosed envelope.
4. Receive your personalized report and book your concierge consult to unlock tailored recommendations.
-
How accurate are the results?
We use ISO 17025 and AABB-accredited labs to ensure precision and reliability. While no test can predict everything, our panels are designed to give you actionable insights into your genetic predispositions for beauty, skin health, and lifestyle optimization.
-
Is my information private?
Absolutely. We follow strict HIPAA-compliant protocols to safeguard your data. Your genetic information is never sold or shared with third parties without your consent.
-
Can I use my results to shop for products?
Yes. After your concierge tele-visit, you’ll receive curated recommendations, skincare, supplements, and lifestyle routines, matched to your DNA. We also partner with luxury beauty and wellness brands so you can shop with confidence, knowing each product aligns with your personal biology.
-
Who can take a DNA Bar test?
Our tests are designed for adults seeking personalized beauty, wellness, and self-care insights. They are especially beneficial for women looking to align their skincare and lifestyle choices with their genetic profile.
-
How soon will I get my results?
Once your sample arrives at our lab, results are typically ready within 1–2 weeks, but some tests can take up to 6 weeks. You’ll receive a notification to schedule your concierge tele-visit, where we’ll walk you through your personalized insights.
