How TRIO Blemish works 

  • Control sebum production (Niacinamide and TrioBlitzTM)
  • Decreases sticky skin cells (Retinol and Retinaldehyde)
  • Unclogs pores (Salicylic acid)
  • Decreases C. acnes bacteria (TrioBlitzTM)
  • Decreases red marks and brown marks (Phytic acid, Ferulic acid, Dioic acid and Vitamin C)
  • Decreases scarring (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate)
  • Repairs skin barrier (Ceramides, Glycerin and Allantoin) 
  • Anti-aging with Retinol, Glycerin and Retinaldehyde

Why Use a GEL Moisturiser?

For oily/acne prone skin, you want to use a non-comedogenic moisturiser (doesn’t clog pores). For this you ideally want a non-fatty moisturiser, so a light gel-based moisturiser is preferrable, where you know the water content is high & fat content negligible.

Why Use Separate AM/PM Moisturisers?

There are advantages to using some active ingredients at night, and there are other ingredients which you would not want to use during the day ideally. This calls for separate formulations of moisturiser, so ingredient utilisation is optimised for each time period.

People of skin of colour with oily skin are more likely to get all 3 acne blemishes:

1. Acne,

2. Post Inflammatory Erythema (red marks)

3. Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (brown marks).

We need to tackle all 3 processes simultaneously.

In skin of colour, we don’t want to worsen acne or cause reactions, as this is more likely to lead to hyperpigmentation. The TRIO Blemish range has a minimal expected reaction rate (zero reactions in the consumer study in fact).

The active ingredients are at the correct percentages for skin of colour, working synergistically in an easy-to-follow step-by-step system.

The simplification reduces the risk of making mistakes with confusing skincare products & layering, which are more costly for skin of colour.

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOUR SKIN & HOW DOES TRIO BLEMISH HELP?

There is an increase of sebum production, your skin cells become more sticky and this clogs the pores creating an anaerobic environment in the pore where C. Acnes bacteria then replicates. This is seen as a pimple.

We want to use TRIO Blemish products to regulate sebum production, unclog pores and reduce marks seen from acne.

If pimples become large and painful it is called a cyst and you should see a dermatologist.

For people with oily/acne prone skin and/or enlarged pores, blackheads, sebaceous filaments.

Separate protocols apply for general oily skin and combination skin (see below).

From 12 years of age onwards.

Not for persons with a history of reactions to skincare products or overly sensitive or damaged skin.

Not for fungal acne, see your doctor for this.

A.M. Routine

1. Wash face with TRIO Blemish Gel Wash

2. (optional) Spray on TRIO Blemish Exfoliator

3. Apply TRIO Blemish AM Gel Moisturiser

P.M. Routine

1. Wash face with TRIO Blemish Gel Wash

3. Apply TRIO Blemish PM Gel Moisturiser

Warning: In general, only apply the products in this range on normal, clean skin, not if cracked/damaged. In the rare event of skin irritation or an allergic skin reaction, please discontinue use and contact your doctor if required. 

Side Effects: in rare cases, spots may occur for a few days or up to 6 weeks when you first start usage of TRIO Blemish. This is likely to be 'purging' where the vitamin A in the TRIO Blemish products causes skin cell turnover to increase and bring oil/bacteria up to the skin's surface quicker than usual (in oily/acne prone skin).

after 4 weeks:

78% "oil control improved"

76% "my fine lines have reduced"

76% "I feel more confident"

70% "my acne has reduced"

1. How long would TRIO Blemish range products last for?

This will vary for each product and person, however, if usage guidelines are followed, the average duration may be 6-8 weeks approx.

2. Is the TRIO Blemish suitable for pregnancy & breastfeeding?

The range is suitable for pregnancy except for the 'PM Gel Moisturiser' (contains Vitamin A). If unsure or your circumstances vary, please check with your doctor.

3. Is the TRIO Blemish range suitable for all skin types?

The FULL product range is NOT suitable for dry or sensitive skin.

See 'Suggested Product Routines' tab below for modified/partial TRIO Blemish range routines in the cases above.

4a. What if I have combination skin (acne prone, hormonal acne & non-acne prone)?

Please try the following protocol if your skin is normal/dry in most areas and oily on the T-zone:

AM & PM please use the Dr. V Daily Range, but on the T-zone, use the TRIO Blemish Exfoliator INSTEAD OF the Daily Range 'Exfoliate to Glow' product.

Alternatively, you can use the full TRIO Blemish range on the oily t-zone, and the full Daily range on normal/dry skin if you wish, but this may over-complicate your skincare routine and not be sustainable.

4b. What if I have combination skin plus rosacea?

Same routine as (4a) above on all other areas but do not exfoliate on rosacea area please.

5a. Can you use the TRIO Blemish range with Dr. V Hyperpigmentation kits?

Yes, using the following protocol:

MORNING:

1. Wash with TRIO Blemish Face Wash

2. Apply TRIO Blemish Exfoliator

3. TRIO Blemish AM Gel Moisturiser.

EVENING:

1. TRIO Blemish Face Wash

2. TRIO Blemish Exfoliator,

3. Dr. V Facial Pigmentation Kit

4. TRIO Blemish PM Gel Moisturiser (optional - you may find the FP Kit creams hydrating enough)

5b. Can you use the TRIO Blemish range with Dr. V Antioxidant Power Serum

It's not necessary as there is significant ingredient overlap, but you can use the AO Serum last, after the TRIO Blemish PM Gel Moisturiser if you wish.

5c. Can you mix & match the TRIO Blemish range with Dr. V Daily Range or 3rd party products?

Yes, you can interchange parts of the TRIO Blemish routine with products from other brands or Dr V Daily Range, for example if you only want to use TRIO Blemish cleansers but moisturisers from elsewhere and vice versa.

6a. Can I still use Tretinoin/ topical Acne medications (Duac, Adapalene etc) with TRIO Blemish range?

Yes, same as Facial Pigmentation kit protocol above, but swapping the kit with Tretinoin/medication, and SKIP the evening Exfoliator application.

So the protocol would be:

MORNING:

1. Wash with TRIO Blemish Face Wash

2. Apply TRIO Blemish Exfoliator

3. TRIO Blemish AM Gel Moisturiser.

EVENING:

1. TRIO Blemish Face Wash

2. Tretinoin or Acne medication

3. TRIO Blemish PM Gel Moisturiser

Note: please avoid if skin is sensitive or becomes sensitive after combining these products.

6b. Can I use the TRIO Blemish range whilst on Isotretinoin/Roaccutane?

Only some of the products, you can use the TRIO Blemish Face Wash & AM Gel Moisturiser.

Please do not use the PM Gel or Exfoliator.

6c. Should I still use Niacinamide, Ceramides, Retinol, Vitamin A/C/E serums from other skincare lines in conjunction with the Dr V. TRIO Blemish Range?

No, nothing else required, it's all in the range.

You can try other products with the range, however only you know your skin and what it can tolerate, so some trial & error may be needed.

7a. Can TRIO Blemish be used for body acne, such as on the back?

Yes. For back acne, a possible routine could be:

1. TRIO Blemish Exfoliator (leave on for at least 20 mins).

2. Followed by Deep Cleansing Body Wash

7b. Can TRIO Blemish be used for fungal acne?

Not for fungal acne, please see your doctor for this.

8. Is 'purging' likely?

In rare cases, spots may occur for a few days or up to 6 weeks when you first start usage of TRIO Blemish. This is likely to be 'purging' where the vitamin A in the TRIO Blemish products causes skin cell turnover to increase and bring oil/bacteria up to the skin's surface quicker than usual (in oily/acne prone skin).

9. How long does it take to see results?

You may start to notice beneficial effects in as little as 2-4 weeks, however we advise 8+ weeks to see the full potential, as per the consumer trial results.

Does what it claims

I’m writing this on behalf of my husband. He started using the Trio Blemish range few months back. He has a very oily and acne prone skin. Tried so many products but nothing works for him. But this range works. He does not break out any more. He is very happy with the products. He will purchase this as long as Dr V stock these products.

I’m on my third kit!!

I’ve had a real journey with my acne, used prescribed multiple tropical treatments and multiple antibiotics over several years. The next step was accutane. Given the side effects, I wanted to give this products a go and I’m glad I did. My skin has never looked better and I always get comments on how much my skin has cleared up. I currently get the odd break out during that time of months and have some PIE and PIH scarring on my cheeks (next step is the hyperpigmentation kit).
