NeoStrata's Bionic range uses gentle PHAs to exfoliate and hydrate sensitive skin.
Weighing a PHA against a traditional glycolic or lactic acid? The Academy entry on polyhydroxy acids explains why the larger molecule sits differently on reactive skin, and the guide to lactobionic acid covers the bionic acid this range takes its name from — both worth reading before you settle on a strength.

Frequently asked questions
Which Bionic product should I start with?
Which Bionic product should I start with?
Start with Bionic Lotion for a light daily moisturiser, or Bionic Face Cream if your skin is drier. Add Bionic Face Serum underneath once you want more visible firming and smoothing. The PHA Renewal Pads come last, swept over the skin two or three evenings a week for gentle exfoliation.
How do I layer the Bionic serum, cream and pads?
How do I layer the Bionic serum, cream and pads?
In the evening: cleanse, sweep a PHA Renewal Pad over dry skin, then Bionic Face Serum, then Bionic Face Cream to seal everything in. On non-pad nights, go straight from serum to cream. Keep the routine to evenings at first, and add a morning serum layer once skin is settled.
What are PHAs and why choose them over glycolic acid?
What are PHAs and why choose them over glycolic acid?
PHAs (polyhydroxy acids like gluconolactone) are larger molecules than glycolic acid, so they exfoliate the surface more slowly and with far less sting. They double as humectants, pulling water into the skin, which is why the Bionic range hydrates as it smooths. That makes it the line for redness-prone, dry or easily irritated skin.
Can I use the Bionic range if I have very reactive or redness-prone skin?
Can I use the Bionic range if I have very reactive or redness-prone skin?
Yes — this is the gentlest exfoliating line NeoStrata makes, and Bionic Lotion and Bionic Face Cream are formulated for skin that reacts to stronger acids. Begin with the cream nightly and introduce the PHA Renewal Pads slowly, twice a week. Bionic PHAs support the skin barrier rather than stripping it.
