• Clinical and microbiology research showed a correlation between skin barrier repair and microbiome improvement.
• XEMOSE C8+® introduces a new generation of biomimetic ceramides to support skin barrier repair in atopic dermatitis.
• BARIEDERM-CICA+® Repairing Cream supports controlled skin regeneration, with clinically proven anti-mark efficacy from Day 7.
• BARIESUN® ex-vivo research shows that topical non-occlusive polymers can reduce skin penetration of UV filters.

PARIS, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Laboratoires Dermatologiques d’Uriage present its latest studies’ results at the 2026 European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Congress.

“The core of modern dermatology lies in a deeper understanding of immune mechanisms of the skin” said Dr Marius Anton Ionescu, MD, PhD, Scientific Communication and Medical Director of Laboratoires Dermatologiques d’Uriage. “At EADV 2026, Uriage shares translational research studies with clinically proven results to support dermatologists’ prescriptions in frequent skin conditions.”

Microbiome Barrier and Clinical Improvement 

The skin microbiome is a key element in chronic inflammatory skin diseases:

• In acne, microbiome imbalance is involved in the inflammatory process. Uriage Repairing Thermal Water (URTW), MPA-REGUL^TM patent and TLR2-REGUL^TM patent, at the heart of the HYSEAC® range, contribute to this microbiome-balancing approach¹.
• In rosacea, the microbiome is also involved in a complex pathophysiology combining physical skin barrier, innate immune receptors, and microbiome changes. Topical care ROSELIANE® improves skin barrier, clinical outcome and skin microbiome².

Atopic Dermatitis: Restoring Skin Barrier And Microbiome with XEMOSE C8+® Biomimetic Ceramides

Atopic dermatitis affects around 20% of children and up to 10% of adults worldwide³.

In atopic dermatitis, the microbiome is part of a complex interaction between skin barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation, and microbial dysbiosis. Decreased microbial diversity contributes to inflammation and aggravates skin barrier alterations⁴.

Focusing on ceramide deficiency, skin barrier dysfunction and microbiome imbalance, Uriage presents XEMOSE C8+®.  Developed with eight biomimetic ceramides, the C8+ technology is designed to restore both the quantity and diversity of ceramides, helping restore the physical skin barrier while supporting microbiome balance and immune defense⁵. Research and clinical findings show that the XEMOSE C8+® Balm helps soothe itching from the first application, increases ceramide levels within 24 hours and improves physical skin barrier function. Patients with atopic dermatitis having applied XEMOSE C8+® Balm showed improvement of clinical signs of sensitive, dry to very dry, atopy-prone skin atopic dermatitis: -62% Pruritus /-47% Erythema/ -65% Dryness⁶, while increasing skin microbiome diversity⁷.

Skin Regeneration: Advancing Controlled Healing with BARIEDERM-CICA+ ®

The skin healing process can influence the appearance of residual scar marks, which remain a concern for 68% of people living with scars⁸. With BARIEDERM-CICA+® Repairing Cream, Uriage focused on skin regeneration approach by targeting two key elements of healing: maintaining an optimal environment and regulating skin repair. This dual action supports all phases of skin regeneration, while a high-tolerance water-in-oil texture and POLY-2P complex of polymers create a semi-occlusive barrier to maintain controlled hydration, supported by clinically proven anti-mark⁹ from Day 7. BARIEDERM-CICA+® Cream showed -90% redness and damaged skin appearance ⁹.

Photoprotection: BARIESUN® Helps Limit UV Filter Skin Penetration with Non-Occlusive Polymers

In a study on ex vivo human skin, two non-occlusive polymers (Skin Shield Technology^TM in BARIESUN® range) associated with UV filters, showed a decreased skin penetration of UV filters compared to same UV filters formulation without polymers¹⁰.

Uriage Repairing Thermal Water (URTW): The Scientific Foundation Across Uriage Formulations

URTW is the scientific core of every Uriage range. Naturally isotonic and enriched with 11,000 mg/L of minerals and trace elements, it helps optimize skin hydration and reinforce physical, microbiome and immune barriers.
