When Dr. Harold Lancer was around eight years old, he fell backwards into a vat of boiling water. And if comic books have taught us anything, he had two choices: become a superhero or a super villain. He opted for the former. So, over the next 18 months, he watched the local doctor clean his wounds, and he witnessed how the skin could heal itself with very minimal scarring, with a little pampering. Today, Dr. Lancer is known as the dermatologist to the stars and his skin products are available all around the world, but his minimal approach to skincare — one that doesn't involve invasive procedures, instead leveraging your skin’s natural renewal and repair process — was inspired by this healing journey.
