Why I Chose Dr. Schrammek for En Beauty

A practitioner perspective from Izumi Sugihara, En Beauty, Auckland

Choosing which skincare brand to work with is one of the most important decisions a therapist makes. It shapes the results we can offer, the confidence behind our recommendations, and the trust our clients place in us.

For me, that decision led to Dr. Schrammek.

What drew me to the brand was its strong dermatological foundation and commitment to supporting the skin, rather than overwhelming it. I value skincare that delivers visible results while respecting the skin barrier — especially for clients with sensitive, reactive, or compromised skin.

One of the treatments I most value in my clinic is GREEN PEEL®. Unlike many aggressive resurfacing approaches, it works with the skin’s natural renewal process and offers different methods depending on the client’s needs. This makes it a highly versatile treatment for concerns such as texture, pigmentation, scarring, and overall skin renewal.

I also appreciate how well the Dr. Schrammek homecare range supports professional treatments. Products such as Blemish Balm have become a trusted part of my clinical work, helping to calm, protect, and support the skin both in clinic and at home.

My approach to skincare is strongly influenced by Japanese beauty philosophy — focusing on long-term skin health, consistency, and respect for the skin. Dr. Schrammek aligns beautifully with that philosophy and allows me to treat a wide range of clients with confidence.

For me, it is a brand that combines science, skin integrity, and real treatment results — and that is why I chose to work with it.
