„The production of individual facial care based on hyperspectral measurement is unique in the world." 

– Dr. Lars Rüther, founder of skinmade

If you want to improve your skin, you have to understand its language. Let's listen together. We translate individual needs and help the skin regain its natural strength and radiance. skinmade® is a research result and a spin-off of the Fraunhofer Institute and sees itself as the technology leader in personalized skincare. With our Smart Spectrum, we connect your institute directly to skinmade's cyber-physical production system for personalized skincare:

1. With skinmade's globally unique hyperspectral measurement, you analyze the most important skin biomarkers of your customers in just a few minutes.
2. skinmade's artificial intelligence calculates a personalized system care.
3. The personalized system care is produced fresh and personalized in skinmade's production system in Stuttgart.

Together with you, our goal is to effectively treat the skin concerns of blemishes / acne, hyperpigmentation, redness / rosacea, wrinkles / sagging skin. By best identifying individual skin needs, the skin always gets what it really needs.

Treating skin concerns

„skinmade stands for facial care with the highest efficacy – because the skin receives exactly what it currently needs: over- or under-care ruled out."

– Dr. Lars Rüther, founder of skinmade

The foundation of skinmade's system care is a personalized 2-level biomarker treatment – individual skin concerns are treated effectively.
Level 1 - The dermatological basis for treating skin concerns is an intact skin barrier. Our personalized level 1 products regulate the skin's hydration and lipids and thus bring the skin barrier and the acid mantle into their biological balance. This allows the skin to regenerate and optimally fulfill its barrier function (e.g. protection from external influences).
Level 2 – Starting from an intact skin barrier, level 2 is about the targeted treatment of the specific skin concerns of wrinkles, dry skin, blemishes and acne, hyperpigmentation as well as redness and itching (as therapy support: rosacea).

Biomarkeranalyse mit skinmade’s Smart Spectrum

The Smart Spectrum is a technology developed in-house by skinmade. With the help of our Smart Spectrum, a hyperspectral measurement of skin biomarkers can be carried out. Biomarkers are biological features of natural and / or pathological processes & changes in the body. Thanks to our non-invasive hyperspectral measurement, we reach deep layers of the skin. Through the cells' ability to absorb light, we detect skin biomarkers and the current condition of the skin.

"With our hyperspectral measurement, we measure the skin biomarkers lipids, hydration and collagen in just a few minutes."

– Dr. Lars Rüther

skinmade's artificial intelligence, which we've now been training for 10 years, interprets this data and calculates personalized formulations that are produced fresh in skinmade's production system in Stuttgart.

The goal is to improve the skin's biological processes. This is a continuous process in which the formulations are repeatedly tailored to the current condition of the skin. In this way, the skin's biomarkers are gradually brought to their optimal value.

skinmade's personalized production

„We're very proud that we can produce the right cream for each and every skin condition in-house ourselves. Every face cream is a one-off & made fresh."

– Viktor Balzer, founder of skinmade

The production process was developed by us, back when we were scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation. With skinmade's Smart Spectrum, which sits in your institute, we connect your institute easily and effortlessly to skinmade's cyber-physical production system in Stuttgart. You analyze your customers' biomarkers in just a few minutes. Your customers can even choose their own scent and texture. The results of the biomarker analysis as well as the calculated personalized system care for your customers are sent directly & in real time to skinmade's production system in Stuttgart and produced fresh & automatically. Within 2 days, your customers receive their personalized system care delivered by post straight to their home.

Our headquarters, lab & production site are located in Stuttgart.

skinmade's personalized system care works at the cellular level

Our personalized system care works in a targeted way within specific skin cells. With sophisticated and innovative penetration systems, we deliberately guide actives into the skin cells where they're needed. We use unique, mutually reinforcing combinations of actives. Thanks to our unconventional and innovative approach, we can, for example, stimulate the production of the body's own collagen and hyaluronic acid, reduce the production and transport of melanin, reduce inflammation, embed capillaries into the dermis, and much more.

When selecting our raw materials, we hold ourselves to the highest quality standards. Of course, our products are vegan and cruelty-free.

We develop all our products in-house in our own lab in Stuttgart. In our development, we always stay true to our scientific origins at the Fraunhofer Institute – innovative and unconventional.

Our philosophy

We believe that if you want to improve the skin, you have to understand its language. We know that we can understand the skin because we translate its language and reliably determine its individual needs. Our approach is transparent and always easy to follow. This way, people understand what we do and, at the same time, feel understood. We accompany people on a process of regeneration and continuous improvement. Along the way, we prove our understanding and special expertise again and again. This creates an incomparable trust in our brand and our product, but also strengthens people's trust in themselves. We don't tell the skin what it needs – we listen to it. The skin tells us its needs, and we understand them. We translate individual needs and help the skin regain its natural strength and radiance.
