Clinical Formula
Thiamidol
Thiamidol is a patented ingredient, known to fight hyperpigmentation acting at its root cause. It works by inhibiting the human tyrosinase, the key enzyme in melanin production. Hyperpigmentation can be the result of different causes, e.g. sun-induced pigment spots, post-acne marks or age spots. Key benefits are:
- Reduction of Hyperpigmentation: By effectively inhibiting tyrosinase, Thiamidol decreases melanin synthesis, leading to a visible reduction in dark spots and an even skin tone.
- Works on all skin types: Thiamidol is dermatologically tested and suitable for all skin types, including dry, oily, combination, normal and sensitive skin. It works for skin of any ethnicity or age and thus is effective on all skin types and tones.
- Fights post-acne marks: Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation happens when skin is inflamed or injured, for example because of acne. The impacted area is left darkened and hyperpigmented despite having otherwise healed. Thiamidol addresses these areas resulting in an even skin tone.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic Acid, a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) is a potent exfoliating and comedolytic agent that effectively targets blemish-prone skin by unclogging pores and reducing bacterial growth. Key benefits are:
- Deep Pore Cleansing: As a small lipophilic molecule, Salicylic Acid penetrates deep into pores, dissolving excess sebum and dead skin cells to prevent clogging and breakouts.
- Exfoliating & Smoothing Effect: Gently promotes the removal of dead skin cells, refining skin texture and improving overall clarity.
- Anti-Bacterial Action: Effectively counteracts Cutibacterium acnes, a key bacteria responsible for acne development, helping to reduce existing blemishes and prevent future breakouts.

FAQ
What is the ideal routine to reduce blemishes and post-acne marks on the body?
To finally reduce blemishes and post-acne marks on the body, we recommend to:
1. Cleanse skin with DermoPure Triple Effect Cleansing Gel
2. Apply DermoPure Triple Effect Body Cream to the affected areas of your body
If you are looking for additional protection before leaving the house, apply Sun Body Oil Control Gel-Cream SPF 50.
For face usage we recommend to cleanse with DermoPure Triple Effect Cleansing Gel, apply DermoPure Triple Effect Serum and complement with a moisturizer for blemish-prone skin like DermoPure Protective Fluid SPF 30 or DermoPure Mattifying Fluid.
If you are using medical treatment for acne, we recommend cleansing your skin with DermoPure Cleansing Gel and using DermoPure Adjunctive Soothing Cream as care product.
What are post-acne marks (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or PIH for short)?
PIH is a type of hyperpigmentation of the skin that is mainly triggered by the way skin regenerates after inflammation. It can affect the face and body, typically especially UV-exposed areas, and appears as flat spots of hypercoloration. These range in color from pink to red, brown or black, depending on skin tone and the depth of hypercoloration. The root cause is increased melanin production, the pigment that defines the color of a person’s skin, which is stimulated by inflammatory factors. The blemish triggers melanocytes – the melanin-producing cells – to release excessive melanosomes (pigment granules). The excessive pigment granules darken and discolor the formerly stressed area. Once initial blemishes have subsided, spots of hypercoloration, so-called post-acne marks, can remain.
Additionally, sun exposure can aggravate PIH symptoms, darkening the affected patches and prolonging the time it takes for them to fade. Most acne-related PIH will eventually fade over time, but it can take several years or even a decade until it is fully gone*.

How can post-acne marks be prevented?
PIH is mainly triggered by the way skin regenerates after an inflammation. To prevent it, though there are no guarantees, avoid picking at or pressing your pimples. The best prevention is, however, to target acne-related PIH at the root, meaning preventing blemishes from appearing and getting inflamed. Use an effective cleanser like DermoPure Triple Effect Cleansing Gel and a specific skin care like DermoPure Triple Effect Serum and DermoPure Triple Effect Body Cream.
Additionally, sun exposure can aggravate PIH symptoms, so we recommend sun protection. Limit the time you spend in the sun and keep out of the sun during its most intense hours. Wear protective clothing and sun hats whenever possible and apply a sun protection factor of at least 30, to protect marks from darkening and help prevent new marks from appearing by using specialized skincare like DermoPure Protective Fluid SPF 30 for your face and Sun Body Oil Control Gel-Cream SPF 50+ for your body.
