What Brands Are Medical-Grade Skincare?
What brands are medical-grade skincare? Why we rank Environ at the top, how to avoid counterfeits, why a consultation matters, and our favorite products.

Medical-grade skincare can be very effective. Why? Well, simple! It uses high-quality active ingredients at higher strengths, chosen to target the specific skin concern you want to improve.
What is the best Medical grade skincare brand?
One of the best medical-grade brands, in our opinion, is Environ. Environ’s innovative approach to skincare contains a mix of active ingredients including high doses of Vitamin A (Retinol) and antioxidants, that can be used by all skin types. Environ’s products help keep the skin barrier healthy and strong, as well as improve skin tone and texture over time. Environ gives you healthier, more radiant-looking skin, and helps soften the signs of sun damage.
Environ was formulated by renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Des Fernandes. It offers a range of skincare products according to your skin concerns. The AVST line helps prevent premature aging. The Youth EssentiA line helps reduce wrinkles, and fine lines and helps give the skin a youthful appearance.
How can I purchase Medical-grade skin care?
It’s very important when purchasing medical-grade skin care to do so from trusted sources. For example, the market for counterfeit Environ products is huge. However, these products don’t have the active ingredient concentrations found in Environ products. Counterfeit products may also contain filler ingredients or ingredients that may actually be harmful to your skin health. Environ has patented technology and potent ingredients that are made especially to give you healthy skin and beautiful skin. Even the packaging was designed especially to keep the active ingredient concentrations
Why do I need a skincare consultation?
It’s very important to have a skincare consultation with skincare specialists when it comes to using medical-grade skin care. This type of skincare products have a high concentration of active ingredients. They are usually formulated to target stubborn skin concerns. For example, Environ’s products have different levels of Vitamin A (Retinol). It’s important to have a consultation with a skincare professional prior to using Environ Skincare, to make sure that you’re using the right product for your skin concerns/goals.
