Description

Our highest-strength retinol serum, powered by intelligent time-release technology and a bio-inspired botanical complex that boosts the effects of retinol, targeting deep lines, loss of firmness, and stubborn discoloration while supporting optimal skin tolerance.

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ is the most advanced step in the IntelliRET™ system, created for experienced retinol users seeking maximum corrective performance. With 1.0% retinol, it targets deep fine lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, stubborn discoloration, blemishes, and uneven texture. The bio-inspired botanical complex enhances the efficacy of retinol and improves skin tolerance, making this level of performance achievable without the barrier disruption traditionally associated with high-strength retinol.

At the core of its delivery system is cutting-edge microencapsulated retinol, which allows for a gradual, timed-release overnight, maximizing efficacy while minimizing irritation. The formula is further enriched with soothing and hydrating ingredients like niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate for visible results, delivered in comfort.

Recommended once your skin is comfortable with consistent use of IntelliRET™ 0.5+. Use as directed by your skincare professional.

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ is part of AlumierMD’s Core 4 Essentials, designed to target visible signs of aging driven by Oxidative Aging™ and support long-term skin resilience as part of a complete daily defense approach.

Contains Vitamin A. Consider your daily intake before use.

Key Benefits
  • Maximum retinol performance that targets the appearance of deep fine lines and wrinkles, significant loss of firmness, stubborn discoloration, and blemish-prone skin.
  • Bio-inspired botanical booster (Chlorella vulgaris) amplifies visible results and supports a more balanced skin response at maximum retinol concentration.
  • Microencapsulated retinol for controlled delivery, maintaining maximum efficacy while reducing the barrier disruption that typically limits high-strength retinol use.
  • Niacinamide provides essential barrier reinforcement at this concentration to support ongoing skin comfort and tolerance.
  • MATRIXYL® Synthe'6® visibly supports skin structure and helps improve the appearance of loss of firmness alongside retinol's smoothing effects.
  • Targeted calming complex helps manage the visible signs of skin stress at higher retinol concentrations for more comfortable sustained use.
  • The final and highest step in the IntelliRET™ progressive strength pathway, for experienced retinol users.
  • Precision-dose needlenose tube for precise, hygienic application. Professional guidance required.

Ingredients

Microencapsulated Retinol (1%): A vitamin A derivative and antioxidant that reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles and improves texture and tone by strengthening skin, and increasing skin turnover. Retinol exfoliates to help decongest pores and reduce the look of discoloration, making it suitable for blemish-prone skin. Encapsulated retinol allows for a slow release into the skin overnight minimizing side effects, so you can enjoy all the benefits of retinol with little to no irritation.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Along with keeping in moisture and boosting hydration, it also increases tolerance to topical retinoids.

MATRIXYL® Synthe'6®: Derived from a peptide naturally found in collagen and laminins, this visibly supports skin structure and targets the look of stubborn wrinkles and skin firmness.

Tetrapeptide-14, Green Tea Extract, Boswellia Serrata Gum: A peptide combined with the antioxidant properties of green tea and the soothing qualities of boswellia.

Sodium Hyaluronate: A salt form of hyaluronic acid that hydrates by drawing water into the outer layers from within the skin. It holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making skin appear plumper, softer and smoother.

Backed by Science

At 1.0% concentration, retinol drives a significantly accelerated rate of visible skin renewal, addressing the most advanced skin concerns, from deep structural changes in the appearance of skin to significant tone irregularities and acne presentation. The clinical challenge at this concentration is not efficacy; it is maintaining the barrier integrity and skin comfort needed to sustain consistent use, which is what ultimately determines long-term outcomes.

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ applies the full IntelliRET™ system to this challenge. Microencapsulation controls the delivery rate of retinol at maximum concentration, attenuating the irritation peak without attenuating visible efficacy. The bio-inspired botanical booster (Chlorella vulgaris) provides a synergistic enhancement to visible renewal outcomes while simultaneously supporting a more balanced skin response, allowing skin to better adapt to and consistently tolerate the 1.0% concentration over time.

Niacinamide provides active barrier reinforcement throughout, while the Matrixyl® Synthe'6™ peptide and calming complex address the skin comfort and structural support requirements of sustained high-strength retinol use.

The result is a maximum-strength retinol formula that operates at the highest level of corrective performance achievable in a cosmetic retinol serum, supported by a system designed to make that performance sustainable, consistent, and clinically meaningful over time.

Questions, answered

Still unsure what fits your routine?

Ask your AlumierMD skincare professional

Who is IntelliRET™ 1.0+ recommended for?

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ is exclusively recommended for advanced retinol users under professional guidance, with demonstrated consistent tolerance at IntelliRET™ 0.5+. It is appropriate for patients addressing advanced signs of aging, significant loss of firmness and laxity, stubborn hyperpigmentation, or acne-prone skin requiring maximum corrective retinol performance. It is not appropriate for new retinol users, those with rosacea, highly reactive skin, or barrier-impaired skin, or for self-directed use without prior professional assessment.

Is IntelliRET™ 1.0+ suitable for acne-prone skin?

Yes, under professional guidance. At 1.0% concentration, retinol delivers meaningful visible improvements in skin texture, pore appearance, and the visible signs of acne-prone skin. The IntelliRET™ system's barrier-supporting ingredients are specifically designed to manage the increased sensitivity risk at this concentration. Your skincare professional will advise on appropriate introduction frequency and any adjustments based on your skin's response.

How does IntelliRET™ 1.0+ maintain tolerability at maximum strength?

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ applies the full Intelligent Retinol Technology system at maximum concentration. Microencapsulation controls the delivery rate of retinol, reducing the irritation concentration peak without reducing visible efficacy. The bio-inspired botanical booster (Chlorella vulgaris) enhances visible renewal while supporting a more balanced skin response, and Niacinamide provides active barrier reinforcement throughout use. This combination allows maximum retinol performance to be achieved and, critically, maintained through consistent use.

Can I purchase IntelliRET™ 1.0+ without seeing a professional first?

IntelliRET™ 1.0+ is only available through AlumierMD-authorized clinics and professionals. It cannot be self-prescribed or purchased without professional assessment. This is not a restriction on performance; it is a safeguard that ensures this level of retinol is matched to the right skin at the right time, in the right way, to deliver the results it is capable of. Speak to your AlumierMD professional to find out whether IntelliRET™ 1.0+ is appropriate for your skin.
