Dr. MAL consists of MAL (Methyl Aminolevulinate HCI) ingredients, used for photodynamic therapy (PDT)*. 

As a therapy that destroys sebum and inflammation, which are the fundamental causes of troubled skin, it effectively manages troubled skin and helps recover skin conditions.

PRINCIPLE

1. When a pore with inflammation absorbs the Dr.MAL (Methyl ALA), it is transformed into Pplx.

2. Photodynamic Therapy refers to the process of irradiating the light energy of a certain wavelength, followed by the application of a photosensitizer, which selectively permeates into the sebaceous glands and pores, on skin. It helps improve troubled skin.

3. As the light of a certain wavelength is irradiated, it destroys acne bacteria and sebaceous glands resulting in the reduced inflammation.

MAIN INGREDIENTS 

Methyl - ALA 13%

Panax Ginseng Callus Culture Extract

WHY Dr. MAL

Methyl-ALA (MAL) minimizes the skin damage, pain which may occur during PDT. According to the reports by Wiegell and Wulf, MAL is reported to cause less pain, compared to ALA, while simultaneously having a short post-treatment waiting time with reduced PDT side effects, hence proven to be effective for treatment.
