C-Lester Topical Vitamin C10 Serum

★★★★★ 4.8 (11 Reviews)

Vitamin C is one of the most abandoned actives in skincare, and the reason is almost always the introduction rather than the ingredient.

C-Lester C10 is built to be tolerated. A stabilized ten percent Vitamin C working on dullness and the look of uneven tone, buffered with Aloe.

Skin looks brighter and more even, and daily use stays comfortable. Worn in the morning under moisturizer and sunscreen, or in the evening where skin prefers it.

Usage:

How This System Works
The gentle way into Vitamin C. A stabilized 10% complex neutralizes free radicals and supports a brighter-looking complexion, with Arbutin helping to even tone — enough to work, mild enough that sensitive skin usually gets on with it. Use it in the morning before moisturizer, or at night if you're new to Vitamin C and want to ease in. Once your skin is comfortable here, C20 is the step up.
Directions
Every morning. Apply to cleansed skin, then follow with moisturizer and a broad-spectrum SPF — Vitamin C works hardest against free radicals during the day. If you are new to Vitamin C or your skin is sensitive, use it at night instead to reduce the chance of irritation.

R&D TRANSPARENCY

The Science Your Practice Can Trust

Dermaesthetics has formulated in its own USA laboratory since 1988, with Korean-American clinical training behind every formula. Which means when you need to know why an ingredient is in a product, there's someone who can actually answer.

Built On Established Ingredient Science

Actives are chosen for well-documented mechanisms and combined so several routes to one concern work together. We'll show you what the research behind an ingredient supports, and we won't claim more for a formula than that research covers.

Korean Philosophy, Western Method

Korean skincare supplies the question — what does this skin need to find balance — and Western clinical practice supplies the means to answer it correctly. Both traditions sit in the lab, which is why the formulas are corrective without being punishing.

Developed For The Treatment And Retail Home-Care

Formulas are built knowing they'll be used both ways: applied by you in treatment, and taken home by the client between visits. The retail products extend the work you did — it isn't a substitute for the appointment.

TREATMENT PROTOCOL

How to Use in Your Practice

Step 01

Assess the client, not the calendar

Start with the skin in front of you

Barrier condition, recent procedures, and how the client responded last time all change what's appropriate today. Ask how their skin felt after the last treatment.

Step 02

Calibrate to each client's needs

Dose, depth and frequency are yours to set

DBH formulas are built to be adjusted for the client rather than applied uniformly: depth across the peel range, frequency on the correctives, how much you layer and how often.

Step 03

Extend it past the appointment

The time in-between you don't see them

What happens between visits decides whether the work holds. The retail line is built to work the same concerns at home, so a client maintains what you started instead of arriving at the next appointment back where they began.

What Clinical Professionals Are Saying

★★★★★

"I've stocked Dermaesthetics in my clinic for three years. My clients see real results and have been loyal to me because of it. It's become a cornerstone of my treatment protocols."

"Switching my backbar to Dermaesthetics was the best decision I made. Client retention improved because they see lasting results. Some of the products are expensive, but a little goes a long way with these products."

I have watched glycolic be the answer to everything, then vitamin C be the answer to everything, then stem cells, then peptides, then whatever we're calling exosomes this month.

So take it for what it's worth when I say this line has aged well in my room. It's a lot of layering, a lot of attention to comfort and barrier and not stripping people — but it isn't chasing whatever's trending. Acids are acids. They just handle them thoughtfully and they tell you the truth about what a formula is for.
