Clinical Product Selection Matrix

A practical clinical guide to help you identify which product to use, why to use it, when to use it and where it belongs in the treatment sequence. Start with the indication — then move from product selection to home care, professional care and protocol integration.

Clinical Product Selection Matrix in 30 Seconds

You do not need to memorize every product or every protocol. Begin with the clinical objective, identify the required function, choose the appropriate product and then decide where it belongs in the treatment sequence.

01

What do I treat?

Start with the clinical indication — not with the product catalogue.

Pigmentation Acne Photoaging Texture
02

What do I choose?

Match the indication to the required product function, then select the product that fulfils that role.

Correct Stabilize Maintain
03

When do I use it?

Place the selected product in its practical treatment context: daily care, periodic use or professional treatment.

Morning Evening Periodic Professional

How far do I go?

Start with the smallest coherent pathway. Extend it only when the indication, treatment phase or clinical response requires it.

Indication Function Product Timing Protocol
You do not need every product. Start with the smallest coherent product selection that addresses the clinical objective. Extend the regimen only when the indication, treatment phase or response requires it.
Start With the Clinical Problem

Choose by Clinical Indication

Product selection should begin with what you are trying to treat. Choose the dominant clinical indication first. The detailed matrix will then help you connect that objective with the appropriate product function, timing and protocol.

Do not start with the product name. Start with the indication, then determine what the treatment needs to accomplish.
01

Pigmentation

Uneven pigmentation, dyschromia and pigment-focused treatment objectives.

Define the required function
02

Acne

Acne-prone skin and treatment pathways directed toward active acne management.

Define the required function
03

Photoaging

Visible signs associated with cumulative environmental and photo-induced skin aging.

Define the required function
04

Texture & Surface Irregularity

Roughness and visible surface irregularities requiring a texture-focused strategy.

Define the required function
05

Visible Pores

Pore-focused treatment when visible pore appearance is a principal clinical concern.

Define the required function
06

Dullness & Loss of Radiance

Strategies focused on improving the appearance of dull, uneven or visually fatigued skin.

Define the required function
07

Sensitive / Reactive Skin

Situations in which tolerance and treatment intensity require particular consideration.

Assess suitability first
08

Barrier & Recovery

Barrier-support and recovery needs before, between or after corrective interventions.

Define the support role
One patient may have more than one indication. Identify the dominant treatment objective first. Secondary objectives can then be integrated into the treatment sequence rather than treated as competing starting points.
Indication Function Product
The Core Clinical Matrix

Match the Indication to the Right Product

Do not begin with the product name. Begin with the clinical objective. Use the five functional families below to identify the smallest coherent product selection, then open the detailed product page when more information is required.

Clinical Selection Principle

Choose what the skin needs — not how many products you can combine.

The purpose of this matrix is selection, not accumulation. Begin with the dominant clinical objective, identify the required function, select the smallest coherent product pathway, and expand the protocol only when there is a clear clinical reason to do so.

Clinical Decision Pathways

Find Your Clinical Pathway

Start with the clinical problem, define the treatment objective, then build the smallest coherent pathway. The purpose is not to use every available product — it is to understand what comes first, what performs the corrective step and what supports recovery or maintenance.
