All BIODERMA products are formulated according to the ecobiology principles, which is at the heart of NAOS approach to respect the skin's ecosystem and preserve its health in a lasting way.

Sebium Active Foaming Gel is specifically formulated for acne-prone skin, so that it can act on the causes as well as consequences of these imperfections from the cleansing step:

  • the combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid helps unclog the pores, reduce blemishes and refine the skin texture
  • zinc gluconate regulates shine
  • caprylyl/capryl glucoside: mild cleansing base gently cleanses while respecting the skin’s balance
  • optimal pH which helps achieve the best compromise between efficacy and good tolerance.

Sebium Active Foaming Gel can be used morning and/or evening until imperfections disappear.

  • Step 1 Lather the gel in your wet hands and apply by gently massaging the skin.
  • Step 2 Rinse thoroughly.
  • Step 3 Dry gently.

In case of discomfort:  slight redness (…), apply only every other day.

If irritation persists, stop using product and consult a healthcare professional.

Avoid using Sebium Active Foaming Gel  in association with isotretinoin or treatments with a high keratolytic content.

For thin, sensitive skin, a gentle purifying cleanser such as Sebium foaming gel is preferable.

The skin changes during puberty: it becomes thicker, shiny, imperfections with varying degrees of severity appear and sometimes continue through to adulthood.

Acne-prone skin is a chronic inflammatory disease due to hormonal imbalance, excess poor-quality sebum and the proliferation of C.acnes bacteria.

Acne combines two types of lesions:

  • Comedonal: microcysts and comedones (often called blackheads).
  • Inflammatory: papules, pustules or nodules, which can result in the formation of scars. 

Acne’s severity ranges from minor forms, referred to as “physiological”, to extremely severe forms. Cleansing is a key step in managing this disease.  A routine with a cleansing product suitable for oily or acne-prone skin is required and prescribed for patients as part of their treatment. This is the first stage of the treatment.
