The T-Series: Effective Solutions for Acne and Oily Skin
The Pharmaceris T-Series is specifically designed to provide safe care and hydration for acne-prone skin. The active ingredients in this series normalise sebaceous gland function and possess antibacterial properties to prevent and minimise acne breakouts.

- Vitamin K and its derivatives
- Mandelic Acid
- Hydrogen Peroxide
How to Care for Acne-Prone Skin
Regardless of age, the basic skincare rules for acne-prone skin remain consistent. Protection from the sun and regular cleansing are essential. However, it is crucial to avoid over-drying the skin, as this can lead to increased sebum production. Products with antimicrobial properties are also beneficial.
