I look at a great many lines and bring very few of them into the practice. This one earns its place on absorption. Patients tell me they notice the difference on the first application, which is not something I hear often.

Dr. Mauer did my lips for the first time and I was so nervous to do them for years. They looked amazing.

Chloe

I have been seeing Dr. Mauer for years... I'm now in my 50s and most people still put me in my 30s. I'm so thankful for his artistry.

Results

What to expect, week by week

What patients notice, and roughly when. It is a moisturiser, so the change is in condition rather than correction.

Softer, less tight

Skin feels softer and holds moisture longer through the day.

Week 4

Smoother texture

Texture reads smoother and makeup sits more evenly on the skin.

Common questions

What kind of placenta is used, and is it safe?

An animal-sourced hydrolysed placenta extract, as listed on the manufacturer's ingredient panel. It is a standard cosmetic source in Korea and Japan. No material in this line is human-derived. If you need the species named for a dietary or religious reason, ask us and we will confirm it against the carton.

How is this different from bio-placenta or phyto-placenta?

Those are laboratory-made peptides or plant extracts formulated to imitate the activity of placenta. This line uses placental protein. If the distinction matters to you, it is the reason to read an ingredient list rather than a product name.

What does it feel like on the skin?

The cream is thick in the jar and considerably thinner once worked in, and dries to a matte finish with nothing left on the surface. It carries a herbal, faintly medicinal scent - some people notice patchouli, anise and rosemary. It is not perfumed to cover it, and it is the thing people either like or do not.

Will it do anything beyond moisturising?

It is a moisturiser, so the honest answer is that what changes is the condition of the skin rather than its structure. Patients report it feels softer within about a week and reads smoother by about a month. There is no clinical trial behind this line and we do not claim one.

Can I use it around injectables, laser or peels?

Yes. It is a topical intended for the weeks between treatments, which is how it is used in the practice. Your physician can advise on timing around a specific procedure - particularly in the first days after resurfacing.

Which one should I start with?

The Collagen Cream. It is the product the practice stocks first and the one most people stay on. The toner and ampoule go underneath it if you want the full routine, and the masks are occasional rather than daily.
