"Even as a dermatologist with many years of experience, I find the skincare market to be quite opaque. That's why transparency and integrity are at the heart of our brand values."
- Dr. med. Emi Arpa, Dermatologist & Founder
SHAPING AN INDUSTRY
By developing her own skincare products, Dr. Emi Arpa pursues her goal of creating a new awareness of skin health. In a time when dermatologists' capacities are limited and the cosmetics market offers little guidance due to marketing claims and a lack of transparency, the dermatologist supports consumers in making the right decisions for their skin needs by providing comprehensive, clear information.

Meet the founder
DR. EMI ARPA
Dr. Emi Arpa has been working as a dermatology specialist in her own aesthetic dermatology practice in Berlin Charlottenburg since 2021. On social media, she takes her ever-growing community on an educational, entertaining and simultaneously very personal journey into the world of skin health.
Inspired by her father, who was unable to study medicine in Turkey, Dr. Emi Arpa laid the foundation for an extraordinary career with her own medical studies.
Dr. Emi Arpa studied and completed her doctorate at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE). She spent parts of her studies enhancing her expertise at the Charité in Berlin and abroad, including in South Africa, South Korea and Turkey.
Shedeveloped a passion for aesthetic and dermatological treatments during her studies and specialized in aesthetic dermatology and skin surgery after obtaining her medical license.
During her specialist training, Dr. Emi Arpa worked with renowned dermatologists Prof. Dr. Steinkraus at Dermatologikum Hamburg and Prof. Dr. Augustin at UKE and worked in Switzerland to firther deepen her specialization in aesthetic medicine.
Dr. Emi Arpa moved to Germany from Turkey with her family at the age of seven. Raised in the belief that education is a privilege, the dermatologist still continues to see it as her personal duty to share her knowledge with others.
Throughout her career, Dr. Arpa discovered that many patients lack sufficient information about their own skin health and personalized care, due to limited resources at dermatologists' clinics and the overwhelming variety of products available.
To provide better guidance, Dr. Arpa decided to take a previously unconventional route: social media. In no time, her informative content reached thousands of people.
Inspired by the lively exchange with her community and driven by her personal conviction that skincare needs more transparency, Dr. Emi Arpa ultimately began developing her own skincare products.
