Clinical Product Selection Matrix in 30 Seconds

You do not need to memorize every product or every protocol. Begin with the clinical objective, identify the required function, choose the appropriate product and then decide where it belongs in the treatment sequence.

01

What do I treat?

Start with the clinical indication — not with the product catalogue.

Pigmentation Acne Photoaging Texture
02

What do I choose?

Match the indication to the required product function, then select the product that fulfils that role.

You do not need every product. Start with the smallest coherent product selection that addresses the clinical objective. Extend the regimen only when the indication, treatment phase or response requires it.
Clinical Navigation

Find What You Need Clinical Product Selection

Start with the clinical question you need to answer. Move from indication to product selection, pathway, routine position, safety and final clinical decision.

Fast Path → Indication → Function → Product → Pathway
The Selection Principle Start with the indication. Define the required function. Select the product. Position it correctly. Then build only the pathway that is clinically justified.
Start With the Clinical Problem

Choose by Clinical Indication

Product selection should begin with what you are trying to treat. Choose the dominant clinical indication first. The detailed matrix will then help you connect that objective with the appropriate product function, timing and protocol.

Do not start with the product name. Start with the indication, then determine what the treatment needs to accomplish.
01

Pigmentation

Uneven pigmentation, dyschromia and pigment-focused treatment objectives.

Define the required function
02

Acne

Acne-prone skin and treatment pathways directed toward active acne management.

Define the required function
03

Photoaging

Visible signs associated with cumulative environmental and photo-induced skin aging.

Define the required function
04

Texture & Surface Irregularity

Roughness and visible surface irregularities requiring a texture-focused strategy.

Define the required function
05

Visible Pores

Pore-focused treatment when visible pore appearance is a principal clinical concern.

Define the required function
06

Dullness & Loss of Radiance

Strategies focused on improving the appearance of dull, uneven or visually fatigued skin.

Define the required function
07

Sensitive / Reactive Skin

Situations in which tolerance and treatment intensity require particular consideration.

Assess suitability first
08

Barrier & Recovery

Barrier-support and recovery needs before, between or after corrective interventions.

Define the support role
One patient may have more than one indication. Identify the dominant treatment objective first. Secondary objectives can then be integrated into the treatment sequence rather than treated as competing starting points.
Indication → Function → Product
The Core Clinical Matrix

Match the Indication to the Right Product

Clinical Selection Principle

Choose what the skin needs — not how many products you can combine.

The purpose of this matrix is selection, not accumulation. Begin with the dominant clinical objective, identify the required function, select the smallest coherent product pathway, and expand the protocol only when there is a clear clinical reason to do so.

Clinical Decision Pathways

Find Your Clinical Pathway

Start with the clinical problem, define the treatment objective, then build the smallest coherent pathway. The purpose is not to use every available product — it is to understand what comes first, what performs the corrective step and what supports recovery or maintenance.

≠

Procedure Use ≠ Professional-Only Product

Products such as Aseptiskin, 30 Min Peel Off, Lipoic Acid Cream or PostPeel may appear within professional treatment sequences, but this does not make them professional-only products. Peeling de Luxe Plus is the sole professional-only product shown in this matrix.

Clinical Selection Principle Do not use every product every day.

Start with the smallest coherent routine that answers the clinical indication. Add periodic, corrective or recovery steps only when they have a defined function within the selected pathway.

Clinical Safety · Decision Support

Safety, Precautions & Combination Logic

Product selection is not only about what to use. It is also about knowing when to reduce intensity, when sequencing matters, when the skin should be reassessed and when a product belongs only within a defined protocol.

STOP

Do Not Proceed

Reserved for situations in which treatment should not continue until the relevant clinical problem has been assessed.

CAUTION

Assess Tolerance

Irritation, erythema, dryness, sensitivity and barrier condition may require adaptation of intensity, frequency or product choice.

SEQUENCE

Order Matters

Some products have a defined place before, during or after another step. Correct products used in the wrong order can disrupt protocol logic.

PROTOCOL

Context Matters

Some combinations depend on indication, formulation, treatment intensity and the intended clinical objective rather than on one universal rule.

!
Precaution is not the same as contraindication.

This matrix deliberately avoids turning every tolerance issue, sequence rule or professional protocol into an absolute prohibition.

Product
Main Precaution
Combination / Sequence
Clinical Context
Aseptiskin Alcohol-Free Cleansing
Preparation
Allow the cleansed treatment area to dry completely when it is being used before a procedure.
Designed to occupy the cleansing / aseptic-preparation position before subsequent protocol steps.
Alcohol-free cleansing can be used outside professional-only settings. Procedure use does not make Aseptiskin a restricted product.
PrePeel Protocol Preparation
Protocol
Preparation should be adapted to skin condition and the procedure for which the skin is being prepared.
Its place is upstream of the active treatment rather than as an interchangeable treatment step.
Reassess suitability when skin tolerance or barrier condition makes additional preparation inappropriate.
Peeling de Luxe Plus Corrective Peel
Professional Only
Treatment intensity must be adapted to tissue response rather than pursued as a fixed endpoint.
Respect the defined protocol sequence and subsequent recovery strategy. Avoid unnecessary competing active products.
The only product in this matrix reserved exclusively for professional use.
30 Min Peel Off Immediate Surface Renewal
Technique
Application time and use should follow the selected treatment strategy and skin response.
When incorporated into a structured peel, preserve the intended sequence rather than adding unrelated active steps.
Periodic treatment. It may be integrated into a professional procedure but is not itself professional-only.
Papaya Cream Enzymatic Renewal
Tolerance
Adapt frequency when the skin shows unnecessary irritation or reduced tolerance.
Do not automatically multiply renewal products simply because several options are available.
Particularly useful when a progressive, low-complexity renewal strategy is preferred.
Microabrasive Sand Cream Mechanical Exfoliation
Do Not Over-Abrade
Avoid use on inflamed, broken, actively irritated or infected skin.
Adjust pressure, duration and frequency. Avoid stacking unnecessary mechanical irritation onto already irritated skin.
Body-first mechanical smoothing product. Facial use should remain selective and gentle.
StretchPeel Biological Photoprotection
Strategy
Its place depends on the selected regulatory and photoprotection strategy.
Integrate according to protocol phase rather than adding it automatically to every routine.
Alcohol-free biological UVA/UVB photoprotection within the metabolic strategy.
Gradient Cream Progressive Skin Renewal
Progressive Use
Adapt use to tolerance and the overall corrective strategy rather than increasing complexity automatically.
Can occupy a daily conditioning position within structured maintenance pathways.
Progressive correction and maintenance should be reassessed according to clinical evolution.
Lipoic Acid Cream Penetration Facilitator
Sequence Matters
Increased penetration does not automatically mean increased peel depth.
Its position may be before, in combination with or after another procedure depending on formulation, objective and protocol.
May be incorporated into professional protocols, but it is also accessible for public use. Do not assume interchangeability between sequences.
Clarté de Lune Melanocyte Regulation
Timing
Preferentially positioned in the evening / nocturnal component of the routine.
Preserve its intended timing and pigment-regulation role rather than treating it as a generic exfoliating cream.
Numerical and quantitative melanocyte regulation with nocturnal antioxidant support.
KosmoPeel Dual-Barrier Protection
Protect
Use according to the need for barrier reinforcement and environmental protection.
Do not confuse a barrier-protection role with an active corrective peel step.
Particularly relevant when environmental stress and cutaneous resilience are central concerns.
Ormes des Sioux Hydration Retention
Support
Position according to the need for improved hydration retention and sustained comfort.
Its role is supportive rather than interchangeable with corrective or exfoliating treatment steps.
Useful when insufficient water retention is part of the clinical presentation.
PostPeel Post-Procedure Recovery
Recovery
Recovery should respond to actual skin condition, including erythema, dryness, sensitivity and tolerance.
Avoid unnecessary irritation and competing active products during a recovery phase.
Can be used after professional procedures but is not itself restricted to professionals.
Les Félins Comfort & Recovery
Recovery
Use according to comfort and recovery requirements rather than adding it automatically to every routine.
May occupy a defined position before another cream in selected post-peel evening sequences.
Particularly relevant when a protocol calls for additional comfort and recovery support.
Rose du Désert Cooling Comfort
Symptom-Driven
Use according to the need for cooling comfort rather than as a mandatory protocol step.
Do not confuse symptomatic comfort with the corrective action of an active treatment.
Best positioned when heat, local warmth or the need for a refreshing sensation is clinically relevant.
Eye Contour Gel Delicate Areas
Delicate Skin
The periorbital region and other thin-skin areas require an appropriately gentle strategy.
Keep its delicate-area support role distinct from aggressive corrective or exfoliating steps.
Designed for thin and delicate skin areas where hydration, comfort and tolerance are priorities.
Peel SuperStar Stage / Presentation
Not a Treatment
Do not position it as a corrective, therapeutic or resurfacing protocol.
It does not belong inside the therapeutic sequence of the clinical pathways presented above.
Reserved for immediate appearance when presenting oneself on stage or in a comparable presentation context.
≠

Precaution ≠ Contraindication

Sensitivity, timing or the need to adapt frequency should not automatically be presented as an absolute prohibition.

→

Sequence Changes Meaning

Preparation, correction, penetration facilitation, recovery and maintenance are different positions within a protocol.

P

Procedure ≠ Professional-Only

A product may be used during a professional protocol without being restricted to professionals. Peeling de Luxe Plus is the exception.

Clinical Safety Principle The safest protocol is not the one with the most products — it is the one in which every product has a justified place.

When tolerance changes, irritation increases or the expected response differs from the treatment plan, reassess the skin before adding intensity or additional active products.

Clinical Decision Guide · At a Glance

From Skin Concern to Clinical Action

You do not need to memorize every product or use every available option. Start with the dominant clinical indication, identify the required function, position the product correctly in the routine and build the smallest coherent pathway.

One clinical question at a time → one justified decision at a time.

Build

What Is the Smallest Coherent Pathway?

Begin with the essential products required to achieve the clinical objective. Add further steps only when the indication and treatment strategy justify them.

Start simple
Indication → Function → Product → Position → Pathway
The Simplification Principle

Start Simple. Escalate Only When Justified.

A longer protocol is not automatically a better protocol. Build from the minimum coherent strategy and introduce additional products only when they have a defined clinical role.

Level 01

Core

Identify the essential function and the minimum product or step required to address the dominant clinical objective.

Level 02

Basic

Build the shortest complete and coherent routine that the patient can understand, tolerate and follow consistently.

Level 03

Extended / Expert

Add targeted regulation, support, recovery or additional protocol steps only when the clinical situation provides a clear reason to do so.

+
Every additional product must earn its place.

Do not add complexity automatically. Reassess the indication, skin response and treatment objective before moving from Core to Basic or from Basic to an Extended / Expert pathway.

Clinical Product Selection FAQ

Questions Before You Choose

Eight practical answers to help you move from product overload to clinical logic. Use the matrix to simplify the decision — then open the complete clinical protocol when procedural detail is required.

Eight questions • Eight direct answers • No catalogue overload
01 Do I need to use all 17 products?

No. The matrix is a selection system, not a prescription to use every available product.

Start with the dominant clinical indication, identify the function that is actually required and build the smallest coherent pathway.

Start with what is needed → not with what is available.
02 What if several clinical indications coexist?

Identify the dominant clinical objective first. Secondary concerns can then modify or extend the pathway rather than creating several competing routines.

The purpose is not to assign one product to every visible problem, but to establish a coherent treatment priority.

Dominant indication → primary objective → secondary adaptation
03 Should I choose the product or the indication first?

The indication comes first. Product selection becomes clearer once the clinical problem and the required function have been defined.

Indication → Function → Product → Position → Pathway
04 What is the difference between Core, Basic and Extended / Expert?

Core identifies the essential function required for the dominant objective.

Basic is the shortest complete and coherent pathway that can reasonably achieve the intended objective.

Extended / Expert adds targeted products or steps when the skin condition and clinical objective justify them.

Basic does not mean inferior. It means deliberately concise.
05 Can a product used in a professional protocol also be used at home?

Yes, depending on the product. Being incorporated into a professional procedure does not automatically make a product professional-only.

Always distinguish the position of a product within a protocol from its actual access restriction.

Procedure use ≠ Professional-only product
06 Which product is reserved exclusively for professionals?

Peeling de Luxe Plus.

It is the only product in this selection matrix reserved exclusively for professional use. Other products may participate in professional protocols without automatically becoming professional-only products.

Professional Only Peeling de Luxe Plus
07 Can I combine more active products to obtain a stronger result?

Not automatically. Every combination must have a defined clinical purpose, and sequence can be as important as product selection.

When tolerance changes, irritation increases or the skin response differs from the expected course, reassess before adding intensity or another active product.

More products ≠ Better protocol
08 Where do I go when I need the complete treatment instructions?

Go to the corresponding full Clinical Protocol.

The Product Selection Matrix helps you identify what may fit, why it fits and where it belongs. The complete protocol provides the detailed treatment sequence and clinical context.
