Chronic redness is linked to underlying inflammation in the skin. It is often characterised by visible vasodilation (expansion of blood vessels), increased blood flow, capillary permeability, and the movement of inflammatory cells into the surrounding tissue.

Clinically, this presents as persistent facial redness that can be triggered by multiple factors and affect individuals of all skin types.

Treatment approach for C.R. skins

The C.R. complexes are specifically formulated as active resurfacing treatments for skin showing signs of redness. Suitable for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin, these complexes combine multifunctional ingredients that work to:

  • Reduce visible redness

  • Restore and strengthen the skin barrier

  • Support long-term skin resilience

By reinforcing skin barrier integrity and reducing inflammatory responses, pHformula C.R. treatments provide a targeted and effective approach to managing chronic redness while maintaining skin comfort.

Reduced redness. Barrier restoration.

C.R. complexes deliver a synergistic formula of active ingredients including:

  • Mandelic Acid – a very gentle acid with powerful antimicrobial properties, well tolerated by sensitive skin types.

  • Salicylic Acid – an exfoliating agent that clears away surface skin cell build-up and enhances the penetration of other active ingredients.

  • Retinol (Vitamin A) – strengthens the skin by increasing epidermal thickness and improving the dermal extracellular matrix.

  • Lactic Acid – promotes gentle exfoliation, while also improving hydration.

  • PH-DVC™ Delivery Complex – ensures controlled release of these actives into the skin, while soothing, activating cellular oxygenation, and promoting collagen and elastin synthesis.

Together, these actives create a treatment system that reduces visible redness, strengthens barrier function, and supports skin renewal.

A complete system

C.R. professional treatments + C.R. targeted homecare

To prepare for, reinforce and maintain professional results, a core C.R. homecare kit is prescribed as part of every C.R. program.

These products help support healing, calm sensitivity, and keep skin resilient between treatments.

The C.R. Homecare Kit contains:

A.C.T.I.V.E. formula (30ml)
C.R. recovery (30ml)
E.X.F.O. cleanse (100ml)
P.O.S.T. recovery Cream (50ml)

Daily use of sunscreen SPF30+ or SPF50+ is also essential to shield the skin from UV damage. Extended sun exposure should be avoided, especially 14 days before and after treatments.
