How soon will I start seeing results from using Dermalogica products?

Some people see results the first time they use the products, and everyone tells us that their skin feels different straight away. The skin feels, clean, smooth, hydrated, and reflects a new level of health that's visibly noticeable.
If the skin has more advanced long-term needs, such as treatment of skin ageing, acne or hyperpigmentation caused by hormonal fluctuations or sun damage, results may not be immediately visible; however, skin health will continue to improve as you follow the advice.

What are the long-term benefits of using Dermalogica products?

Plain and simple - healthy skin. Dermalogica uses ingredients designed to help keep skin at an optimal level of fitness - not just cover up with cosmetic results. But don't get us wrong: a benefit of healthy skin is skin that looks its best! Also, when the skin is at an optimal level of fitness, skin expert can more effectively address issues that may arise from time to time, as your skin's needs are constantly changing.

Why do I need a professional skin therapist?

For the same reason, doctor and dentist check-ups are necessary: for better health!
Skin is a living part of your body (your largest organ, in fact), that defends against environmental assaults and extreme temperatures. It helps eliminate toxins from the body. It heals from cuts, abrasions and scratches like a champ. It's continually renewing and protecting. Simply put, skin keeps the bad stuff out and the good stuff in.
So why do you dote more on your hair and nails - two items on your body that aren't living? Your skin needs personal attention from a professional - and that professional is a Dermalogica professional skin therapist.

Where are Dermalogica products made?

Made in Southern California, Dermalogica is sold in over 80 countries around the world.
