Improves Acne Without Triggering Excess Dryness

By supporting gentle exfoliation and pore turnover, Derm-A-Renew helps reduce congestion and breakouts while remaining barrier-aware. It’s especially helpful for acne-prone skin that reacts poorly to stronger retinoids, helping keep pores clearer without excessive peeling or inflammation.

"Vivant Derm-A-Renew is one of my favorite options for anyone who wants retinoid benefits but is nervous about irritation. I love recommending it to clients who are reactive/rosacea prone or are first-time retinoid users. This serum also has peptides for anti-aging, which makes it perfect for anyone interested in age management."

Refines Uneven Texture and Early Skin Aging

Consistent use helps smooth rough texture and improve the appearance of fine lines caused by sluggish cell renewal. By encouraging healthier skin turnover, Derm-A-Renew supports a more even, refined surface and helps address early aging concerns without stressing the skin.

Retinyl Propionate

A gentle, effective retinoid that supports collagen production, smooths fine lines, and helps improve overall skin tone with better tolerability.

Niacinamide & Lactic Acid

Help calm redness, enhance hydration, and strengthen the skin barrier.

Kojic Acid & Chrysin

Target the appearance of dark spots while providing antioxidant protection.

Brightens Tone and Supports Pigment Balance

Ingredients like niacinamide and kojic acid help improve uneven tone caused by post-acne marks or early pigmentation. When paired with vitamin A, they support gradual brightening and help prevent discoloration from lingering as the skin renews itself.

Supports Sensitive and Rosacea-Prone Skin

Derm-A-Renew is formulated with barrier-supportive ingredients and anti-aging peptides that help improve skin quality without triggering excess redness. Its gentler vitamin A approach makes it a safer option for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin that still needs correction, helping strengthen the skin while supporting smoother texture and healthier aging over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Vivant Derm-A-Renew different from Derm-A-Gel?

Derm-A-Renew is the gentler option and best for sensitive, rosacea-prone, or very new to vitamin A skin. It focuses on building tolerance, improving texture, and supporting early aging and mild acne with less intensity. Derm-A-Gel is a stronger, more targeted vitamin A designed for active acne, congestion, and pigmentation once the skin can tolerate higher levels of correction.

How does this compare to prescription retinoids?

Derm-A-Renew™ is milder and better tolerated, making it a great alternative for sensitive skin or higher Fitzpatrick types prone to irritation or pigmentation.

Can this be used with rosacea-prone skin?

Yes. When introduced correctly, it’s suitable for rosacea-prone skin and can be paired with calming Vivant products like Allantoin.

Is this a good retinoid if my skin has reacted to retinol in the past?

Yes. Derm-A-Renew™ uses retinyl propionate, a gentler vitamin A derivative that delivers results with better tolerability. It’s specifically suited for sensitive skin or anyone who has struggled with irritation from stronger retinoids.

Will this cause purging or irritation?

Some mild dryness, redness, or purging can occur during the first 30–60 days as your skin acclimates, which is normal. When introduced slowly and paired with barrier-supportive products, most people tolerate it very well.
