Active concentrations that work.
Delivery systems that penetrate.
Every active in Artisa is dosed at the concentration Dr. Truesdale uses in his Beverly Hills practice — and tested across every Fitzpatrick type before it ships.
delivery vesicle
0.5% retinol.
Zero PIH.
Most retinol formulations trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in deeper skin tones — exactly the problem they're supposed to treat. Our encapsulated delivery system releases retinol gradually overnight, which dramatically reduces irritation while maintaining clinical efficacy across all skin tones.
The full ingredient gallery
Encapsulated Retinol 0.5%
Stimulates collagen production and refines skin texture. Our encapsulated delivery releases retinol gradually overnight to dramatically reduce irritation while preserving efficacy.
Dual-form Vitamin C (THDA + SAP)
Brightens skin tone and adds a daytime antioxidant layer against UV-driven free radical damage. The dual form is stable and well tolerated.
Niacinamide 4%
Minimizes the look of pores, evens tone, and supports the skin barrier. Pairs well with both Vitamin C and retinol.
Ceramides NP, AP, EOP
Replenish the lipids that hold skin together. A reinforced barrier is what makes nightly retinol tolerable long-term.
Peptide Complex (Matrixyl)
Signals the skin to produce more collagen. Works alongside retinol without adding irritation.
Bakuchiol
A plant-derived retinol companion. Adds gentle anti-aging support without the photosensitivity of traditional retinoids.
Surgeon-led. Tested across every skin tone.
Honest about what each active does.
Formulated for the patient our industry underserves
Every active is selected and dosed for safety across the full Fitzpatrick scale — including the deeper skin tones most retinol and acid systems were never tested on.
Concentrations that match the practice
Dr. Truesdale uses these same concentrations on his Beverly Hills patients. Nothing is diluted to a meaningless dose just to put it on the label.
Honest about what each active does
Every ingredient card describes what an active does — not what we hope you'll think it does. Where a claim is backed by our clinical study, we link to the study.
