Innovator & Pioneer

“Modern life calls for Modern Wellness.”

Throughout his long career, Dr. Murad has blazed new trails in medicine by focusing on what his patients need, rather than “spot treating” a patient’s condition using what might be available “off the shelf.” Plus, his training as a pharmacist has enabled him to develop new, science-backed products to help his patients to achieve—not just beautiful skin—but greater health and happiness inside and out.

1989 – Present

The First Science-Backed,Doctor-Branded Skincare Line

Dr. Murad’s skincare products were among the first clinically proven to achieve significant measurable anti-aging results without surgery. Awarded 19 patents for his skincare breakthroughs, Dr. Murad’s skincare line was:

  • Among the first to use alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), the game-changing anti-aging ingredient
  • First to treat the underlying connection between skincare, healthcare and hydration – leading to the first products to help the cells retain water (RepleniCell).
  • Pioneering identification of three distinct types of aging—environmental, genetic, and hormonal—and treatments for each type
  • First to introduce the medical spa—combining science-backed treatments with Inclusive Health® stress relief
  • “Dr. Murad has literally changed the face of professional skincare. His integration of science-based concepts with the reorganization of holistic care of the skin is a true innovation. Dr. Murad’s philosophy of ‘not treating skin problems, but treating people with skin problems’ supports his belief that ‘skin care is health care.'” ―Mark Lees, PhD, Chair, The Esthetics Manufacturers and Distributors Alliance of the American Beauty Association
