When we talk about Placentor Végétal, we’re not just talking about a skincare brand. We’re talking about more than 55 years of expertise in dermo-cosmetics—a scientific, human, and botanical journey that began in Lyon in 1959, right in the heart of the hospital setting. At that time, the very first Placentor cream was used to repair, soothe, and regenerate the skin of severe burn victims at Saint-Luc Hospital. Even then, the promise was clear: to give the skin a second chance, just as one gives water to parched earth.
In the 1960s, Placentor’s regenerative cream became a medical standard. It aided in wound healing, supported skin reconstruction, and demonstrated that cosmetics can be much more than a mere aesthetic gesture. It can become a true therapeutic treatment, respectful of the skin’s physiology. It is this rigorous and deeply human medical vision that laid the foundation for the brand.
In 1991, a decisive turning point changed the history of dermo-cosmetics. Dr. Bernard Guillot, a pharmacist with a passion for botany, discovered a plant-based alternative to human placenta: the Plant Placenta. A substance naturally rich in amino acids, peptides, and minerals, capable of nourishing, protecting, and revitalizing the skin with exceptional tolerance, even on the most sensitive skin. This discovery marked the official birth of applied phytodermatology.
That same year, Placentor became Placentor Végétal, the first brand to apply the principles of phytotherapy and gemmotherapy to dermatological cosmetics. The Placenta Végétal, located beneath the pistil of young plants, acts as a true nourishing liquid, comparable to a concentrate of life. It supports the growth of the fruit… and now, that of your skin. A perfect metaphor, isn’t it?
In 1996, Dr. Fouchère, a homeopathic pharmacist, expanded the Placentor Végétal universe with a complete line of hygiene and skincare products. The brand entered a new dimension: that of a comprehensive skincare routine, capable of addressing every skin type, every age, and every skin concern. Today, Placentor Végétal offers formulas with an even higher concentration of Plant Placenta, all while adhering to strict specifications validated by in vivo tests.
What truly sets Placentor Végétal apart is its philosophy. The brand prioritizes naturally derived active ingredients, selected for their proven efficacy, optimal skin tolerance, and biological affinity with the skin. For over 30 years, pharmacists have trusted these high-quality formulas, designed to soothe, repair, protect, hydrate, and enhance the skin day after day.
