Facial Scrubs

Facial scrubs play a key role in a skincare routine because they remove dead skin cells and promote skin renewal. This leaves the complexion looking fresher and more even. When used regularly, scrubs can unclog pores, reduce blemishes and acne, and help visibly refine the skin’s texture. This is particularly beneficial for age-related changes such as fine lines and wrinkles.

Another benefit is the skin’s improved ability to absorb products: active ingredients from day and night creams and serums can have a significantly more intense effect after exfoliation. High-quality fruit acid peels, such as those available from DOC.BERGER | EFFECT, provide targeted support for the skin without unnecessarily stressing it, while preserving its natural radiance.

Facial scrubs should be used in the evening and not too frequently. Always follow the recommended application time, and be sure to rinse thoroughly afterward. Since the skin is more sensitive to light after exfoliation, it is essential to use a day cream with SPF and a built-in blue light filter the next morning.

When choosing the right exfoliant, effectiveness, skin tolerance, and your individual skin condition are key factors. Fruit acid peels are among the most effective methods for gently yet deeply removing dead skin cells. The use of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) stimulates skin renewal, resulting in a refined, smoother complexion and an even skin tone.

Our Anti-Aging 15% Fruit Acid Peel was specifically developed to reduce signs of premature skin aging and promote the skin’s natural regeneration. The fruit acids specifically lower the skin’s pH level, which helps loosen the bond between dead skin cells. This not only promotes a clearer skin texture but also supports collagen and elastin production. With regular use, the skin appears fresher, plumper, and firmer. Pores appear refined, fine lines are smoothed, and the complexion gains a new radiance.

Fruit acid peels are particularly suitable for mature, sun-damaged, or blemish-prone skin, but should be used with caution on very sensitive skin. It’s also important to apply them in the evening and to consistently use a day cream with SPF afterward and the following day to protect the skin from UV-related damage.

A high-quality fruit acid peel, such as the one from DOC.BERGER | EFFECT, specifically supports the skin’s regeneration and ensures a visibly improved complexion—backed by dermatological research and ideal for a sophisticated skincare routine.

The effectiveness of our Anti-Aging 15% Fruit Acid Peel is based on a precisely balanced combination of highly active ingredients that are specifically tailored to the needs of mature, blemish-prone, or sun-damaged skin. Each of the active ingredients used fulfills a specific dermatological function to achieve a lasting improvement in the skin’s appearance.

Glycolic Acid (AHA)

As the smallest alpha hydroxy acid, glycolic acid has a particularly high ability to penetrate the skin. It breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells and stimulates the skin’s natural renewal process. By reducing fine lines and uneven pigmentation, glycolic acid visibly improves the skin’s texture. In addition, it enhances the skin’s ability to absorb subsequent skincare products, as the skin is optimally prepared after exfoliation.

Salicylic acid (BHA)

This fat-soluble beta-hydroxy acid penetrates deep into the pores, where it dissolves sebum buildup and dead skin cells. Salicylic acid helps reduce blemishes, prevents new breakouts, and has anti-inflammatory properties. It promotes a clearer, more even complexion, especially for combination and oily skin.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

Niacinamide strengthens the skin barrier, regulates sebum production, and has a soothing effect. When used in a peel, this active ingredient helps the skin prevent irritation that could result from exfoliation. In addition, niacinamide improves the skin’s moisture levels and can reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation.

Panthenol (provitamin B5)

Panthenol provides intense hydration and supports skin regeneration after exfoliation. It soothes the skin, reduces redness, and helps restore the skin barrier. This active ingredient is essential for stabilizing the skin after exfoliation and ensuring a comfortable feeling on the skin.

Thanks to the targeted combination of these active ingredients, the Anti-Aging 15% Fruit Acid Peel offers an effective solution for smoother, more even, and more youthful-looking skin.
