Medical-Grade Skincare

Epionce

Epionce is a dermatologist-developed, medical-grade skincare line built around clinically tested botanical extracts — meadowfoam, willow bark, date palm kernel — that calm chronic inflammation, restore the skin barrier, and address the root causes of breakouts, melasma, dullness, and fine lines. Founded by Dr. Carl Thornfeldt, Epionce takes a barrier-first approach instead of relying on harsh acids and synthetic actives, which is why our aestheticians keep it front and center for clients with sensitive, post-procedure, or reactive skin who haven’t tolerated other clinical brands. Every Epionce product on this page is one we use in the treatment room.

About the brand

Botanical actives, barrier science, dermatologist-developed.

The Epionce lineup we carry

The Epionce range we carry is designed to layer into a complete routine. It starts with the Purifying Wash — a daily cleanser that lifts oil and debris without stripping. From there, the Lytic Tx Retexturizing Lotion and Lite Lytic Tx are our exfoliating treatments of choice; they smooth texture, fade post-acne marks, and clear active breakouts, which is why they’re often our answer when clients search for Epionce Lytic Tx for acne or hormonal congestion. The Purifying Spot Gel handles flare-ups overnight on individual blemishes. To rebuild the barrier, the Renewal Facial Lotion and Intensive Nourishing Cream replenish lipids and lock in hydration without clogging pores. For visible firming and antioxidant defense, the Intense Defense Serum layers vitamin C with peptides and botanical antioxidants — it pairs beautifully under sunscreen and is one of the most-recommended Epionce serums on our shelf.

For melasma, dark spots, and post-procedure recovery

For brightening, the Melanolyte Tx and Melanolyte Pigment Perfecting Serum are our go-to recommendations for clients managing melasma, sun damage, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Both are hydroquinone-free dark spot serums, which makes them a meaningful option for pregnant, breastfeeding, or hydroquinone-sensitive clients who still want clinical fading without the long-term concerns. Around the eyes, the Renewal Eye Cream targets fine lines and crepiness, while the Luminous Eye Serum brightens shadowing and lifts puffiness — pair them or use them at different stages depending on your concern. After in-office treatments like microneedling, laser, or chemical peels, the Essential Recovery Kit speeds healing, calms redness, and minimizes downtime; it’s the kit our aestheticians reach for after nearly every aggressive in-clinic treatment we perform.

Where to start with Epionce

Most Epionce routines we build start with three SKUs — the Purifying Wash, a treatment step (Lytic Tx, Melanolyte Tx, or Intense Defense Serum depending on concern), and a barrier moisturizer like the Intensive Nourishing Cream — and grow from there. If you’re new to medical-grade skincare and not sure where to start, our aestheticians can match you to the right Epionce routine in a single in-clinic consultation. And if you’re already deep into a routine but not seeing the visible results you want, an Epionce reset is often the answer; the line layers cleanly with retinols, vitamin C, and most other clinical brands you may already be using.
