We often associate a higher price with a higher-quality product, but that isn’t always the case, especially when it comes to skincare. In fact, many high-quality medical-grade skincare products are no more expensive than popular online boutique brands or even some popular drugstore brands.
Rather than using the price tag to determine how effective a skincare product might be, consider these benefits of medical-grade skincare when weighing your options.
High-Quality, Concentrated Active Ingredients
One of the biggest benefits of medical-grade skincare products is the quality and concentration of the ingredients they contain. Medical-grade products must meet specific quality standards that non-medical-grade products do not have to meet. So while two products might have a similar ingredient list, their sourcing and concentration may be very different.
Formulated to Maximize Efficacy
Similarly, two products might contain similar ingredients, but if one is formulated in a way that maximizes the absorption rate of those active ingredients, that product will be much more effective than the other. This is often the case with medical-grade skincare vs. over-the-counter skin care, allowing medical-grade products to provide significantly better results, often with fewer side effects.
Backed By Clinical Research
Medical-grade skincare is evidence-based and backed by clinical studies that demonstrate its effectiveness and back up its claims. Drugstore brands, on the other hand, do not have to back up marketing claims with clinical evidence, making it difficult to sift through product labels.
