pHformula

pHformula is the first pharma-cosmeceutical skin resurfacing brand, which is the result of an innovative alliance between cosmeceuticals and medical prescriptions. Developed as a dermatological skin resurfacing system, pHformula successfully treats skin disorders like ageing, hyperpigmentation, acne and chronic redness. The laboratories of pHformula were founded in the late nineteenth century and are still controlled by the fourth generation of a family of pharmacists specializing in dermatology, which reflects the benefits from a research-based approach to dermatologic innovation. The pHformula laboratories are based in Barcelona Spain, drawing on decades of combined experience specialising in clinical and cosmetic dermatology and consulting on a continual basis

pHformula is taking Skin Resurfacing to the next level, by introducing the action of controlled chemical skin resurfacing which is totally different than conventional peelings. Peelings mainly cause skin exfoliation, whereas controlled resurfacing actively provokes an accelerated form of cell regeneration in the different layers of the skin, whilst trauma and superficial irritation is reduced. An “outside in” and “inside out” philosophy, providing the skin with the full benefits assisting in rapid skin restoration.

All formulae used in pHformula are supported by science with more than 30 years of combined scientific and medical experience. pHformula sets the standard with scientific proof for advanced skin resurfacing technology. We devote countless resources towards research at major medical institutions to support the technology behind products. All our actives are of pharmaceutical grade, and the studies supporting our products are peer reviewed.

The efficacy of controlled chemical skin resurfacing not only depends on the choice, nature or concentration of the acids used but most importantly on the maximum proton delivery in a uniform manner, without causing excessive skin irritation during contact time with the skin. With more than 25 years of experience in skin resurfacing the Research Laboratories of pHformula have developed a unique controlled chemical skin resurfacing philosophy.

The homecare skin resurfacing products are condition specific prescriptions to prepare, optimize and maintain the results of the skin resurfacing treatments, making sure that the skin specialist has access to the most advanced treatment system. Prescribing a pHformula homecare regime is simple and easy to follow. 

“Controlled chemical skin resurfacing is not just a matter of applying
acids to the skin – its an art, an understanding and a passion”
