A few words from Dr Tiina Meder

Do you know what the greatest challenge in acne treatment is? It’s compliance. More than half of patients follow their dermatologist's recommendations for just a few weeks before stopping due to discomfort, pain, irritation and other side effects. For a long time, retinol was hailed as the gold standard of acne treatment, but now it faces scrutiny in the EU over its safety for regular use. As a safety expert, I’ve chosen not to include retinol in Meder formulations. I believe it's best used only when strictly necessary and under medical supervision.

Oily skin and acne signal an imbalance in skin sebum glands and the microbiome. I discovered a gentle way to treat these issues using a natural retinol-like substance derived from avocado and forest mushroom extracts. Yes, you can achieve results comparable to retinol without the painful side effects.

Equa-Derm combines this avocado-derived sebum regulator with prebiotics and anti-inflammatory tamarind extract to address oiliness and acne development comprehensively. We reduce sebum production, calm inflammation, block comedone formation, and suppress the growth of acne-causing bacteria.

Recently, Equa-Derm was awarded Best Oily Skin Moisturizer and Best Oily Skin Product, but our greatest reward comes from the messages we receive from skin therapists and happy customers who finally rid themselves of uncomfortable shine and pimples without suffering. If only I could time travel and share Equa-Derm with my younger self!

I have combination skin. Which Meder cream should I choose?

If you have oily skin in the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) and normal to dry skin in the other areas of the face we would recommend using Equa-Derm in the morning to normalise the sebum production, and Salva-Derm in the evening to keep the skin calm and matte without overcorrecting the activity of sebaceous glands.
