Non-Acid Acid Precursor 15% (NAAP) is a non-acidic resurfacing treatment that promotes visible radiance and smoother-looking skin without the irritation commonly associated with acids or retinoids.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND NAAP: a gentle approach to visible skin resurfacing and renewal.
- Non-Acidic Surface Renewal NAAP is formulated as an alternative to traditional acid-based exfoliation systems. Rather than relying on direct acids such as AHAs, BHAs or retinoids, this advanced treatment uses fermentation bio-derivatives and amino isolates that act as precursors to skin-compatible acids. This approach helps encourage visible radiance, improved-looking texture and enhanced surface regularity without the redness, irritation or inflammation commonly associated with conventional resurfacing technologies.
- Advanced Bio-Ferment & Amino Technologies A postbiotic complex supports the skin through precursor technologies that mimic the effects of naturally occurring acids within the skin. Two forms of amino isolates help emulate the visible surface-refining benefits commonly associated with retinoids—without the use of retinoids or related acids. In addition, a bio-ferment oligopeptide delivers exfoliation support designed to improve skin smoothness and clarity while remaining gentle on the skin barrier.
- Barrier, Hydration & Comfort Support Highly-purified natural levomenol helps support skin comfort, hydration and visible barrier integrity throughout the resurfacing process. A marine-derived exopolysaccharide further enhances water-retention capacity, helping maintain hydration levels essential for healthy-looking skin turnover. Independently tested in a 48-hour patch test, NAAP was found to be non-irritating while promoting brighter, smoother and more refined-looking skin over time..
