The promise

This is retinol as a considered ritual rather than a shock to the skin. The Intensive Repairing programme pairs pure retinol with soothing botanical care, so the resurfacing power that renews sun-damaged and ageing skin arrives wrapped in calm. Over a weekly course, texture softens, tone evens and the complexion looks genuinely renewed, not merely treated.

The ritual

Four movements

Every SKEYNDOR professional treatment follows one arc: the senses are welcomed, the skin is prepared, the transformation is performed, the result is sealed and sent home with you.

SKEYNDOR treatment — Welcome the Senses

Movement I — Welcome the Senses

The signature welcome

Your therapist begins with the SKEYNDOR welcome ritual, a quiet moment to settle before the treatment. It is also when your skin is assessed, so the retinol strength and the calendula oil dose can be tailored precisely to you.

SKEYNDOR treatment — Prepare the Skin

Movement II — Prepare the Skin

Double cleanse and resurface

A thorough double cleanse with Expert Cleanse Pro or the Aquatherm cleanser clears the surface completely. Where suitable, a SKEYNDOR enzyme or Glyco 30 peel is worked in for a few minutes and removed with cool towelling, refining the skin so the retinol can do its work evenly.

SKEYNDOR treatment — Transform

Movement III — Transform

Retinol, oil and amber

Pure Concentrated Retinol, blended with one per cent bakuchiol and HS soy extract, is smoothed in with calm, unhurried movements until fully absorbed. A golden amber extract mask is then split in two: the first half is massaged in with gold-coloured Calendula oil, dosed drop by drop to your skin type, and the second half is left on as a soothing, brightening mask for fifteen to twenty minutes before removal.

SKEYNDOR treatment — Seal & Send-off

Movement IV — Seal & Send-off

Antioxidant finish

An Intensive Antioxidant cream with SPF 15 completes the ritual, carrying pomegranate, grape, Norwegian spruce, coenzyme Q10 and vitamin C to protect and support the freshly renewed skin. Your therapist then sets your home prescription, including the important rule of no retinol at home on treatment day.

The science

Renewal without the shock

Retinol works by speeding the skin's natural turnover, encouraging tired, sun-damaged cells to give way to fresh ones underneath. Power Retinol delivers a potent concentration of pure retinol, up to a maximum of 0.15 per cent, smoothed in with slow, unhurried movements until it is fully absorbed. Alongside it sits one per cent bakuchiol, a botanical partner that carries much of retinol's renewing effect while keeping the skin calm rather than provoked.

Where retinol pushes, the botanicals soothe. Gold Calendula oil, rich in carotenoids, is dosed drop by drop to your skin type to control the redness retinoids can bring, and a golden amber mask conditions and brightens as it settles. A final antioxidant cream of coenzyme Q10, vitamin C, pomegranate, grape and Norwegian spruce shields the renewed skin. Over a weekly course the texture softens and the tone evens, cumulative rather than sudden.

The language of Power Retinol, decoded

Retinol
A form of vitamin A that speeds the skin's renewal to soften lines, texture and sun damage.
Bakuchiol
A plant-derived active that gives retinol-like results while helping keep the skin calm and comfortable.
Photoaged skin
Skin that has aged from sun exposure rather than time, showing lines, uneven tone and rough texture.
Retinoid warmth
A little pinkness or warmth that can follow retinol, completely normal and quick to settle, not a reaction.

Where science becomes ritual.

Enter the World of SKEYNDOR

Continue at home

Your therapist can prescribe the Power Retinol range to continue the renewal at home between treatments. Introduced slowly and used as directed, it keeps building the smoother, more even skin the course begins. Remember to leave retinol home care aside on treatment day, and your therapist will guide the rhythm that suits your skin.

Questions, answered

Is Power Retinol suitable for me?

It suits most skin types from around twenty-five onwards, and is ideal for sun-damaged, uneven, congested or blemish-prone skin. It is not used on sensitive or reactive skin, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and your therapist will check your suitability first.

Will my skin be irritated?

The formula is designed to renew without the usual irritation, thanks to bakuchiol and soothing calendula oil. A little warmth or pinkness afterwards is completely normal and settles quickly.

Can I use my retinol at home on the same day?

No. The treatment delivers a full daily allowance of retinol, so your therapist will ask you to skip retinol home care on treatment day. The day before or the day after is fine.

How many treatments will I need?

A course of six, one each week, with the option to extend depending on your skin's condition.
