INSTITUT ESTHEDERM
For over 40 years the research of the Institut Esthederm France has revolved around the pioneering concept - proactivity - a unique strategy that gives the skin the means to react on its own.
Instead of looking for external, temporary solutions, I.E. you are interested in re-training the skin, teaching it to correct itself. This treatment guarantees immediate, obvious and long-lasting results.
Jean Noël Thorel, French pharmacist, expert in cellular biology, is the founder of the company NAOS and of the brands Institut Esthederm, Bioderma and Etat Pur. As early as the 1970s, this researcher passionate about cell biology imagined a new generation of cosmetics: high-tech treatments, capable of interacting with the biology of the skin to obtain lasting results. This is how he designed the first sunscreens to activate melanin, the skin's natural protective pigment.
Usually, by helping the skin for years and over-protecting it, it has forgotten how to use its natural defense mechanisms.
Constantly receiving attacks has lost its power. His protective abilities have been differentiated from our way of life and atrophied by over-protection.
The mission of I.E. is to "wake it up" but using only active compatible ingredients that respect its ecosystem. This is the "active ecology" created in perfect harmony with the biology of the skin.
For the I.E. The skin is a living organism that functions as an ecosystem. Combining high technology with biology, I.E. has managed to re-adapt the skin to its environment.
