Hypochlorous acid in skincare – the body's own defense mechanism and the future of skin protection
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is the body's own defense molecule, produced by white blood cells to protect the skin and tissues from harmful microbes and inflammation. This natural substance has long been known in the medical environment, but only in recent years have its gentle and versatile effects been introduced into skincare.
Hypochlorous acid is unique because it combines effective cleansing and soothing without stinging or drying. It works in harmony with the body's biology – supporting the skin's own recovery and balance, not disturbing it.
What is hypochlorous acid – and why is it important to you?
Hypochlorous acid is naturally produced in the body when the immune system responds to skin irritation, bacteria, or inflammation. It is the body's own defense mechanism and one of the most effective ways the body maintains skin health.
When hypochlorous acid is produced for skincare at the right pH and in a pure form, it is a gentle yet effective substance that helps the skin recover and remain calm. It does not contain alcohol, fragrances, or preservatives, and is suitable for almost all skin types – even the most sensitive.
How does hypochlorous acid work in practice?
The skin's surface hosts a diverse microbiome that functions as part of its natural defense. When the skin is stressed – for example, due to excessive washing, climate, or inflammation – the microbial balance and protective layer can weaken.
Hypochlorous acid helps restore this balance. It supports the skin's own ability to protect and renew itself. At the same time, it reduces redness and soothes irritated skin.
Clinical studies have shown that preparations containing hypochlorous acid have demonstrated significant benefits in improving skin comfort and balance. Users report that their skin has calmed, redness has decreased, and the overall skin feel has improved. The tolerance of the products has been excellent.
Benefits in Everyday Life – In What Situations Is HOCl Spray Helpful?
Hypochlorous acid is primarily a skin-repairing and caring agent that offers help with various skin issues and imbalances. It supports the skin's natural defense mechanism, helps control inflammation, and creates conditions for the skin to calm and cleanse.
It is widely used in treating skin redness, irritation, impurities, dryness, and sensitivity. Hypochlorous acid helps restore the balance of the skin's microbiome and supports skin that is burdened by long-term sensitivity, inflammation, or skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis.
HOCl spray is particularly suitable for situations where the skin is inflamed, irritated, red, or reacts easily to care products or environmental factors. It promotes skin renewal and prevents bacterial growth without disrupting the skin's own protective layer.
Many professionals also use hypochlorous acid in skin recovery after treatments and procedures when the skin is more sensitive and prone to irritation.
- Sensitive, red, or reactive skin that needs calming and support to strengthen the skin's barrier.
- Skin prone to impurities or inflammation, such as acne-prone skin, which benefits from a gentle yet effective cleansing effect without drying agents.
- Skin with rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, or seborrheic dermatitis, which needs support in managing irritation and redness.
- Dry, tight, or rough skin whose natural moisture balance and microbiome are disrupted.
- Skin recovery after treatments and aesthetic procedures, when the skin needs protection, cleanliness, and faster recovery.
- Skin with occasional itching, redness, or local irritation reactions, which benefit from a gentle disinfecting and soothing effect.

There are differences in hypochlorous acids
While many products utilize hypochlorous acid, only a few can keep it stable and completely pure. Hypochlorous acid is inherently an unstable compound, and maintaining it in an active form requires very precise manufacturing techniques.
Most HOCl sprays on the market contain residues of sodium chloride (salt) – or even worse, have added stabilizers to enhance shelf life. These changes can weaken the natural structure of the solution and its compatibility with the skin's biology.
HYPO21 differs from others in that its composition is fully stabilized without sodium chloride or other additives. The result is a pure and chemically stable hypochlorous acid solution with a skin-neutral pH (pH 7) that maintains its activity for a long time without artificial preservation solutions.
This manufacturing technological purity makes HYPO21 exceptionally safe, biodegradable, and effective – and that is precisely why it has achieved results that other hypochlorous acid products have not reached. It represents the pinnacle of hypochlorous acid technology, where clinical research, naturalness, and skin well-being meet.
