Our Heritage
Where Science Becomes Skincare
At Galénic, scientific precision and skincare excellence are not ideals; they are our foundation.
Our revolutionary approach to luxury care—grounded in precision cellular science—draws on two visionary figures:
Galen of Pergamon, father of galenic science, and Pierre Fabre, the avant-garde pharmacist who reshaped modern skincare.
CHAPTER 1 : Our Origins – Two Visionaries, One Legacy
Nearly 2 000 years ago, Galen defined the principles of galenic science—the art of converting raw actives into stable, potent, perfectly bioavailable substances.
He understood that true transformation demands actives that are fully bioavailable, rigorously stabilized, optimized, and delivered with surgical precision to the exact site of action.
His insights formed the bedrock of modern pharmaceutical science.
CHAPTER 2 : The Birth of Galénic
In 1978, pharmacist-scientist Pierre Fabre applied that same scientific rigor to the skin itself—and revolutionised skincare.
By translating galenic science—his pharmaceutical expertise—into cosmetics, he fused surgical precision with breakthrough innovation, creating game-changing formulas with visible, clinically proven results and redefining beauty performance at the cellular level.
Galénic was born at the intersection of science, mastery, and transformation: a legacy of relentless innovation, precision formulation, and high-performance care that keeps expanding the limits of what beauty can achieve.
Beauty is not a realm of promises; it is a realm of results.
CHAPTER 3 : Science That Shapes the Future
In 1986, Pierre Fabre pushed his vision further by founding the Cellular Biology Laboratory in Toulouse—a research hub devoted to decoding skin at the cellular level.
From molecular analysis to full formulation, every Galénic product is crafted within this high-precision environment, governed by his uncompromising standards of safety, efficacy, and performance.
For Pierre Fabre, science was not only a quest for results; it was a quest for meaning and collaboration.
He joined forces with scientists, botanists, and clinicians to drive purposeful innovation—advancing both skincare and the world that surrounds it.
Today, his legacy shapes our every action.
Galénic continues to develop revolutionary treatments—precise, clinically proven, and purpose-driven.
