The Brand

With over two decades of clinical experience, KELO-COTE is trusted by physicians worldwide for post-surgical and trauma-related scar recovery. As part of its global expansion strategy, the brand partnered with Pattern to establish its presence across China’s most influential cross-border platforms, including Tmall Global and Douyin.

Challenge

Breaking into one of China’s most regulated verticals

When KELO-COTE partnered with Pattern, they had no livestreaming infrastructure, no influencer strategy, and no clear roadmap for China's complex medical skincare regulations.

  • Products classified as medical devices face strict advertising restrictions, meaning paid traffic isn't an option
  • Success would depend entirely on organic growth and creator-led discovery

Solution

Livestreaming from scratch

Pattern built KELO-COTE's livestreaming operation from the ground up.

  • Trained hosts, developed influencer partnerships, and created an always-on content engine optimized for engagement
  • Aligned livestream messaging with medical compliance standards
  • Leveraged Douyin's creator ecosystem to achieve visibility in one of China's most competitive categories

Sustainable growth and market expansion

KELO-COTE transformed from a niche international brand into a trusted name in China's fast-growing medical skincare space.

  • Achieved this through consistent livestreaming and platform diversification
  • Established a scalable model for organic traffic growth and compliant brand storytelling
  • Set the stage for long-term success across China's ecommerce landscape
