When he created the first BIODERMA and Institut Esthederm products in 1977, Jean-Noël Thorel, a pharmacist and biologist, opened the way to active cosmetics by integrating biology into cosmetics for the first time, with the aim of changing its paradigm.
Present today in more than 100 countries, with 3100 employees, NAOS has chosen a single design and manufacturing site, NAOS Les Laboratoires, in Aix-en-Provence (France) in order to control the quality and unique design of its products.
NAOS and its three brands - BIODERMA, Institut Esthederm and Etat Pur - claim a unique common approach: ecobiology. A combination of biology and skin ecology, ecobiology considers the skin as an ecosystem in constant interaction with its environment.
Inspired by life and driven by the heart, NAOS is a shareholder foundation whose purpose is to contribute to the realization of human potential.
