EXFOLIANT SYSTEM

The QMS philosophy on exfoliation is rooted in their core principle of providing "stimulation without irritation". Rather than relying on harsh physical abrasives, QMS approaches exfoliation biologically by utilizing a precise blend of fruit acids (AHAs, BHAs, PHAs) and enzymes to gently dissolve the biological "glue" holding dead skin cells together.

The Art of Resurfacing

A Guide to QMS Exfoliants

Stimulation Without Irritation

The foundation of a flawless, radiant complexion lies in effective and safe exfoliation. The QMS Medicosmetics philosophy is deeply rooted in providing "stimulation without irritation". Rather than relying on harsh physical scrubs that can damage the skin, QMS approaches exfoliation biologically, utilizing precise blends of fruit acids (AHAs, BHAs, PHAs) and enzymes to dissolve the intercellular "glue" holding dead skin cells together.Often described as "jogging for the skin," this essential step clears cornification, stimulates cellular renewal, and dramatically increases blood flow so that new cells are nourished with oxygen. Most importantly, regular exfoliation opens up the skin, ensuring it is perfectly primed to absorb high-performance collagen serums and subsequent treatments. Remarkably, QMS exfoliants are formulated to be safe for all skin types all year round, as they do not cause sun sensitivity or thin the skin.

The Transformative Classics: AHA Active Exfoliant Resurfacing Liquids

These high-performance resurfacing fluids maintain an optimal pH of 3.5 to gently but effectively renew the skin's surface while soothing the complexion with a natural anti-inflammatory complex.

  • 7% AHA Active Exfoliant Resurfacing Liquid: The ultimate introduction to active exfoliation. This medium-intensity fluid is specially formulated for new clients, sensitive skin, and problematic complexions, and is highly recommended for Fitzpatrick skin types 4 and above. It utilizes a 7% AHA complex to gently dissolve dead skin cells and clear blocked pores, while 1% probiotics help balance the skin's pH. Enriched with an anti-inflammatory complex of fermented organic rye and soothing botanical extracts, it relieves irritation and lightens dark spots, leaving the skin radiant and full of vitality. How to use: Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.

  • 10% AHA Active Exfoliant Resurfacing Liquid: For advanced, high-impact renewal. Categorized as "strong" intensity, this powerful blend of 10% AHAs and enzymes is designed for experienced users who have completed at least two full skin cycles (28 days) with the 7% formula. It actively refines pores, improves skin structure, and maximizes the penetration of follow-up skincare products. Like the 7% version, it features hyaluronic acid, honey, and probiotics to moisturize and stabilize the skin flora during the exfoliation process. How to use: Apply to the face, neck, and décolleté for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water.

The Daily Glow Makers: Gentle Exfoliating Daily Lotions

For those who prefer a leave-on treatment, these sophisticated daily lotions are meticulously balanced to provide continuous refinement and hydration without the need for rinsing.

  • Gentle Exfoliating Daily Lotion (All Skin Types): This highly effective leave-on lotion transforms tired, dull skin into a vibrant complexion. It features a harmonious blend of AHAs (6%), BHAs, and PHAs, alongside deep-sea water for a detoxifying and remineralizing effect. It methodically refines the complexion, reduces fine lines, and increases the cell renewal rate for visibly smoother skin. How to use: Apply with a cotton pad morning and/or evening; the lotion neutralizes itself after 5 minutes and remains on the skin.

  • Gentle Exfoliating Daily Lotion Sensitive: A daily "glow-giver" engineered for reactive skin. With a carefully balanced pH of 4.5, this mild intensity lotion provides controlled resurfacing without causing trauma or redness. It utilizes a 2.5% AHA complex combined with a 5% PHA duo (Glucono-delta-lactone and Lactobionic acid) to deliver deep hydration, antioxidant protection, and high skin tolerance. How to use: Sweep over cleansed skin with a cotton pad; it neutralizes after 5 minutes and preps the skin perfectly for collagen serums.
