Description
Probiotic balm for restoring the skin flora and skin barrier
The skin hosts billions of bacteria, fungi, and microorganisms that together form the microbiome — an invisible protective layer that keeps the skin healthy. In sensitive, irritated, or reactive skin, this microbiome is often out of balance: the "good" bacteria are in the minority, weakening the skin barrier and making the skin more prone to redness, dryness, and itching.
Dr Schrammek ProbioSense is an innovative probiotic balm that restores and strengthens the skin flora from the outside. The combination of Biotilys® (a probiotic ingredient) and inulin (a prebiotic nutrient) creates the ideal environment for a healthy, balanced microflora. Clinical research shows that 4 weeks of use increases skin moisture by 29% and reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL) by 30% — scientific proof of a strongly restored skin barrier.

Active ingredients
Biotilys® (Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate): A patented probiotic ingredient based on lactic acid bacteria. Biotilys® supports the growth of "good" bacteria on the skin and inhibits the overgrowth of harmful microorganisms that cause irritation. It thus strengthens the skin’s natural protective layer from within.
Inulin: A prebiotic nutrient derived from plant roots that serves as food for the probiotic bacteria on the skin. Applying inulin provides the beneficial skin flora with the right fuel to multiply and rebalance the skin barrier.
Phytexcell Mimosa (Mimosa Tenuiflora bark extract): A plant extract from the bark of the mimosa tree with powerful skin-repairing properties. Mimosa extract promotes wound healing, strengthens skin structure, and is especially effective for sensitive, damaged, or irritated skin that needs deep restoration.
Borage oil (Borago Officinalis Seed Oil): Rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that restores the skin’s lipid content. Borage oil regulates moisture levels, soothes irritation, and is well tolerated even by the most sensitive skin. It supports barrier function at the cellular level.
Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate): Binds up to a thousand times its own weight in water, providing deep, long-lasting hydration. Hyaluronic acid plumps the skin from within, reduces fine lines caused by dehydration, and improves elasticity. In sensitive skin, it plays a key role in restoring the natural moisture balance.
Vitamins A and E (Retinyl Palmitate & Tocopheryl Acetate): A powerful antioxidant duo that protects the skin from free radicals and oxidative stress. Vitamin A stimulates cell renewal in a mild, well-tolerated form, while vitamin E strengthens the skin barrier and supports the repair process. Together, they provide comprehensive protection against aging and environmental damage.

Frequently asked questions
What is the skin microbiome and why is probiotic skincare important?
The skin microbiome is the collection of billions of bacteria, fungi, and microorganisms living on the skin’s surface. These "good" bacteria protect against pathogens, support pH balance, and help keep the skin barrier intact. When this microbiome becomes unbalanced — due to stress, pollution, antibiotics, or harsh skincare — irritation, redness, and sensitivity occur. Probiotic skincare like ProbioSense helps restore this balance, offering a deeper approach than just treating symptoms.
Is it scientifically proven that ProbioSense works?
Yes. A clinical study under dermatological supervision at a German university institute, conducted according to GCP guidelines, confirmed the effectiveness of ProbioSense. After 4 weeks of consistent use, skin moisture increased by 29% and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) decreased by 30% compared to an untreated skin area. These results confirm that ProbioSense measurably strengthens the skin barrier.
Can I use ProbioSense alongside my other skincare products?
Absolutely. ProbioSense combines well with serums, ampoules, and SPF. Apply it after cleansing and any serums, and use it as a nourishing base. For very sensitive skin, you can alternate or combine ProbioSense with Sensiderm Stress Protect Cream or Rosea Calm Cream. Avoid simultaneous use of aggressive actives like AHAs or high-dose retinol — these can disrupt the probiotic effect.
Is ProbioSense also suitable for skin types other than sensitive skin?
Yes, ProbioSense is suitable for various skin types that want to strengthen their barrier — for example, dry skin, mature skin, or skin temporarily sensitive due to external factors like seasonal changes or medication. For blemished or very oily skin, caution is advised due to the rich, nourishing texture. In that case, you can apply ProbioSense locally on dry or irritated areas or opt for a lighter option from the Sensitive line.
