Biophora Dragon’s Blood - Retinoid Growth Factor Serum

Biophora Dragon’s Blood Retinoid Growth Factor Serum brings together three ingredients that work well as a team: soothing dragon’s blood resin, bakuchiol (a plant-based alternative to retinol), and a bio-placenta complex of synthesized growth factors. Together they support firmness, smoother texture and a more even tone, without the redness or peeling retinol can cause. A multi-weight hyaluronic acid complex hydrates the skin at different depths, a real help against the dryness of the Canadian climate.

Important: Biophora is a professional active brand. A complimentary virtual consultation with one of our estheticians is required before purchasing this product, so we can make sure it fits your skin and your routine.

Benefits:

• Bakuchiol supports firmness and smoother texture, with excellent tolerance
• Synthesized growth factors support the skin’s natural renewal and collagen
• Four types of hyaluronic acid hydrate and plump at different depths
• Dragon’s blood, niacinamide and antioxidants soothe and support the skin barrier

How to Use:

• Apply to a freshly cleansed and toned face and neck.
• Gently massage a small amount into the skin until absorbed.
• Follow with your moisturizer.

Pro tip: Bakuchiol does not increase sun sensitivity the way retinoids do, so this serum can be used morning and evening. Daily SPF is still essential.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation:

• For skin that wants firmness and renewal but does not tolerate retinol well.
• Helpful for supporting a weakened skin barrier through harsh seasonal changes.
• Contains lavender oil: if your skin reacts to essential oils, mention it during your consultation.

Key Ingredients

• Dragon’s blood (Croton lechleri sap extract): a red botanical resin valued for its soothing, hydrating and antioxidant properties. It also acts as a natural astringent that helps tone and protect the skin barrier.
• Bakuchiol: a plant-derived ingredient studied as a gentler alternative to retinol for pigmentation and fine lines, well suited to sensitive skin.
• Bio-Placenta: a blend of five synthesized growth factors (EGF, IGF-1, acidic FGF, basic FGF, VEGF), vitamin B9 and acetyl glutamine that supports cell renewal and elastin.
• 3D hyaluronic acid complex: high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid forms a protective film on the surface, low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid absorbs more deeply, and a cross-linked form builds a network that replenishes water throughout the epidermis.
