Neuroscience meets skin care: how touch supports emotional wellness and the skin-mind connection
07/29/2025
Neurotouch Symmetry Serum is a first-of-its-kind, neuroscience-powered sculpting oil designed to help visibly restore facial symmetry for more sculpted-looking skin*. This nourishing serum blends neurotechnology with a biomimetic botanical blend to support both skin health and emotional well-being.
In addition to its formula-driven benefits, NeuroTouch Symmetry Serum is paired with a sculpting technique developed by our Professional Skin Therapists—designed to activate the power of human touch for immediate, visible results.
Tap into the power of touch and the skin-mind connection
The relationship between skin and emotional well-being runs deeper than surface-level concerns. Science now confirms what Dermalogica’s Professional Skin Therapists have known for decades—skin doesn’t just reflect how we feel; it also influences how we feel.
As the body’s largest sensory organ, the skin sends direct signals to the brain. When activated through intentional touch, skin receptors can trigger the release of feel-good neurochemicals like dopamine, endorphins, and oxytocin—helping to reduce stress, lift mood, and promote connection.
Stress hormones like cortisol can disrupt the skin barrier, slow healing, and contribute to dullness, dehydration, and visible asymmetry. Intentional touch helps counteract these effects and restore balance.
Paired with the guided sculpting technique, NeuroTouch Symmetry Serum transforms a daily routine into a deeply therapeutic moment of self-care. Designed for solo or partner use, it delivers the clinically proven power of human touch to bring visible results and sensory renewal into your hands.
Beyond touch: a formula designed to improve well-being
The growing “loneliness epidemic” has brought renewed attention to the emotional benefits of human contact. Today, more than ever before, we understand that touch isn’t just comforting—it’s clinically proven to reduce stress and support emotional balance.
That’s the principle behind NeuroTouch Symmetry Serum: facial sculpting elevated by neuroscience. Its aromachology blend is designed to uplift mood, while the application ritual—with the guided sculpting technique—reinforces connection, calm, and resilience, transforming a skin care routine into a moment of well-being and connection, whether practiced solo or shared with a partner.

In internal panels, participants described their experience as “bonding,” “calming,” and “deeply grounding.”
Whether practiced solo or shared with a partner, NeuroTouch brings the healing power of human touch home. In a world that feels more disconnected than ever, this small, intentional act may be one of the most powerful steps toward well-being.
