Worth knowing

The finer details.

A closer look at your skin, your routine and what goes into the formula.

Biologique Recherche Sérum Iso-Placenta

Biologique Recherche Iso-Placenta is a facial serum created specifically for blemish-prone skin and the visible traces that can remain after a breakout. It helps reduce the appearance of both recent and older post-blemish marks, soothe the look of redness and refine uneven-looking texture for a smoother, more even-looking complexion.

At its heart is Biologique Recherche's Biomimetic Placenta, an ingredient complex designed to reproduce key elements associated with human placenta. The current INCI does not list human placenta: the formula combines botanical extracts, peptides, amino-acid derivatives, ferment extracts and skin-conditioning ingredients.

An active blemish and the mark it leaves are not the same concern. Rather than focusing on active oil, Iso-Placenta is centred on the visible aftermath of blemishes, the stage many routines forget. With consistent use, skin looks smoother, calmer and more even, and post-breakout marks become less noticeable. A cosmetic serum helps the look of flat marks; it cannot erase deep, indented or raised scars.

Why we love it

We recommend Iso-Placenta again and again because it addresses something so many blemish routines overlook: the breakout may be gone, but your skin doesn't look like it did before. We think of it when clients tell us the red mark stays forever, or that every breakout leaves something behind. It is not simply a breakout serum; it is the one we reach for when skin needs help looking smooth and even again after blemishes.

Benefits

  • Helps reduce the appearance of recent and older post-blemish marks
  • Helps soothe visible redness associated with previous imperfections
  • Helps skin look calmer and feel more comfortable
  • Refines uneven-looking skin texture and microrelief
  • Helps create a smoother-looking skin surface
  • Promotes a more even-looking complexion
  • Helps skin look clearer and more uniform once blemishes have passed

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Iso-Placenta for active breakouts?

It focuses on the visible marks left after blemishes. If active blemishes, oiliness and excess sebum are the primary concerns, Complexe Iribiol may be more targeted.

Does Iso-Placenta help with scars?

It helps the look of flat post-blemish marks, redness and uneven microrelief. Deep, indented or raised scars are different: a cosmetic serum cannot erase them, and they should be assessed by a qualified professional.

Does it contain human placenta?

No human placenta is listed in the current ingredient list. Biologique Recherche describes its Biomimetic Placenta as designed to reproduce essential elements associated with human placenta.

Is it a brightening serum?

Its primary role is the look of post-blemish marks and uneven texture. The complexion may look brighter as marks fade, but it is not a general pigmentation serum; Sérum PIGM 400 is the dedicated choice for broader pigmentation.

Should I use the serum or Crème ISO-Placenta?

The serum is the targeted step, while Crème ISO-Placenta provides moisturizing and nourishing support. Depending on your Skin Instant, they can be used separately or together.

Does it contain fragrance ingredients?

The INCI lists fragrance allergens such as geraniol, limonene and linalool. If you have known sensitivities, review the full ingredient list or contact us before purchasing.

Consultation & reactions

At Loshen & Crem, we want to ensure you have the best possible experience with Biologique Recherche. Before purchasing any Biologique Recherche product, we highly recommend booking a consultation with one of our estheticians. Consultations are available virtually through Google Meet or in person at our Edmonton boutique. An appointment is required.

Great for clearing up hormonal acne marks

I have been using this for a few months now and it takes a while but works great on hormonal acne. I also use the omnilux red light neck mask and its really helped.

ISO-PLACENTA SERUM

Burns and looks like apple cider vinegar after 2 weeks.

I’m not sure if this is normal but after 2 weeks my serum turned off? Like apple cider vinegar- weird little chunks floating around at the bottom and it’s the colour or a light beer. On top of this, it also kinda burns my skin. Where I apply the serum it gets red bumps, skin looks and feels irritated. None of my other serums make me react like this so I’m not sure if it’s expired? I’m so upset bec usually I try the smaller size first but I took a big chance and just got the larger size. I recommend trying the smaller size first before purchasing the full size.

Hi Abby,

We’re so sorry to hear that you’ve had this experience. We completely understand that having a reaction to a product is never ideal, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

We’d love to gather a bit more information so we can better understand what may have happened. When you have a moment, could you please send us:
-Clear photos of the product
-The lot number and expiry date
-And if you’re comfortable, any photos or videos of the skin reaction you experienced

We know this may feel personal, but it’s incredibly helpful for us to share with the manufacturer as they investigate the situation and look into potential causes.

We also understand this is your first time purchasing with us, and we want to make sure you feel fully supported and taken care of. The more details we have, the better we can assist you and ensure the most helpful resolution possible.

Thanks again for reaching out—we’re here for you and happy to help however we can.

Warmly,

The Care Team

A must for skin rejuvenation

Used this after I had a hormonal breakout to help with the scars it’s left on my face. I know that this expedited my healing because when I had a bout of breakout again and did not use this, the scar stayed for too long that I immediately had to repurchase.

Reordered Second Bottle!

For me to re-order a product means I really love it! ISO-Placenta serum has been a great addition to my morning skincare routine and I use it with the ISO-Placenta cream. My skin is moisturized and makeup layers beautifully on top of both products.

Love this product

I’ve been using this daytime for about 10 months and love it. The texture and brightness of my skin has improved, my scaring has gone away and my hormonal acne dissipated. One bottle lasted me about 8 months. Totally worth the investment!

Fast Healing

I paired this usually with the cream of it's name. Together, they keep my skin blemish free and if one does show up or if there's a scab - this heals it incredibly quickly. Also fast healing when you managed a little sunburned in summer or windburn in winter.

Jasmine

Since introducing the Iso-Placenta Serum to my regimen, my skin feels rejuvenated and the fine lines seem to blur out. The science behind it sounds fascinating, and I believe I've seen its effects firsthand. A little goes a long way, and while it's on the higher end price-wise, the results make it worth the splurge.

great in place of placenta cream

I ran out of my placenta cream- which I love! And find that this serum is almost as beneficial as the cream. Case in point- I got sunburned on the weekend and was upset I could not slather in placenta cream- but I used the serum and the redness subsided and my skin felt quenched. That said, I will continue using it nightly- with and without the placenta cream!

Healing Serum

This serum will always be in my skin arsenal.
It is one of the best serum for my acne prone skin. It works in calming acne and tge healing properties. It also helps with acne scarring/marks. I also use the placenta cream. They make such good combination. Highly recommend

The best serum for pigmentation

I love this serum. It helps so much with pigmentation left from acne scars. Paired with P50 PIGM 400 it’s a miracle worker. Had a really bad breakout that left a scar and within two weeks it’s practically gone!

H

Fades blemishes

I have acne prone skin with occasional breakouts and this serum helps tremendously with healing and lightening of scars. I use it twice a day, just a couple of drops as a finishing serum because of the price tag.

P

No more acne scars

I always pair this serum with my oligo protein serum and iso placenta cream and have seen a very visible glow on my skin after 2 weeks of continuous usage. This really heals any scars that you may have and gives a hydration and glow to the skin

Must have with Iso-Placenta Cream

I pair up this product with the Iso-Placenta Cream and I love it!
It not only heals my post-breakout but also reduces the redness in just a few days.
It is a bit pricy but you will definitely get your money's worth.

Worth the wait.
