About AlumierMD
AlumierMD was launched in 2016 and has been continually developed and driven by a group of skincare-passionate scientists, physician and science-loving skincare specialists with over 100 years of combined experience in the industry. With offices in Europe, the US and Canada, this scientific community continues to evolve and innovate the brand and its offerings.
AlumierMD is one of the fastest-growing medical skincare brands, with a growing global network of partner clinics.
AlumierMD was conceived to service an unmet need: medical-grade skincare that is produced in a socially responsible way and focuses on the importance of educating its customers on how to care for their skin. The company backs this commitment with innovation and education: For six years, it developed a patented technology to eliminate diversion and counterfeiting so that products are always professionally dispensed. And since it was founded, it has offered unparalleled complimentary in-clinic, classroom and virtually on-demand continuing education options – including CPD certifications (UK exclusive) – to build knowledge and inspire confidence in every skincare professional that joins the team.
Why choose AlumierMD over drugstore skincare products?
Medical-grade skincare products, like those from AlumierMD, are formulated with higher concentrations of active ingredients and undergo rigorous clinical testing to ensure efficacy and safety. Unlike products available at the drugstore, medical-grade skincare usually requires a healthcare professional’s prescription or supervision for purchase.
Choosing medical-grade skincare instead of over-the-counter alternatives can be beneficial for individuals with specific skin issues or concerns, as these products are designed to provide more significant, targeted, and faster results, backed by scientific research and professional guidance to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
