Dermaceutic

Dermaceutic is a French professional skincare brand developed by dermatologists — specialising in clinical-grade formulations that bridge the gap between in-practice treatments and effective daily home care.

In brief

Dermaceutic is a French dermatologist-developed skincare brand offering clinical-grade active formulations for home use between professional treatments. Known for its protocol approach — matching home products to in-practice peels and treatments.

About Dermaceutic

Founded by dermatologists in France, Dermaceutic's philosophy is that the best skin results come from combining professional in-clinic treatments with precisely matched home-care protocols. Every Dermaceutic product is designed to either prepare skin for a professional treatment, enhance the treatment result, or maintain and extend it between clinic visits.

The brand formulates without unnecessary additives, fragrances, or irritants — prioritising clinically active ingredients at effective concentrations. Key actives include AHAs (glycolic and lactic acids), vitamin C, retinol, niacinamide, and targeted peptides.

Key products

Dermaceutic Lumicol is a multi-action brightening serum combining niacinamide, azelaic acid, and kojic acid for hyperpigmentation. Activ Retinol offers a progressive retinol range for anti-ageing. Foamer 15 is a glycolic acid foaming cleanser for congested and acne-prone skin. The Dermaceutic Peel range includes at-home peel kits that maintain results between in-clinic chemical peels.

The protocol approach — where home products are specifically matched to in-practice treatments — makes Dermaceutic well-suited for patients on active treatment plans for pigmentation, acne scarring, or anti-ageing at Star Aesthetic Centre.

At Star Aesthetic Centre

Star Aesthetic Centre stocks Dermaceutic as part of its professional skincare range. Dr. Bangalee and the clinical team recommend specific Dermaceutic products as part of individual treatment plans — particularly for patients undergoing peels, pigmentation treatment, or anti-ageing protocols requiring matched home care. Products are selected based on your skin assessment, not sold generically.

Frequently asked questions

How is Dermaceutic different from pharmacy skincare?

Dermaceutic products are formulated at clinical concentrations that produce measurable change in skin — higher than what is typically found in retail or pharmacy brands. They are designed for supervised use as part of a clinical protocol, which is why they are only available through authorised medical practices.
