Healthy hair rooted in skincare

Synonymous with innovation and scientific excellence in skincare, Vichy Laboratories created the Dercos line to reflect the brand's philosophy that beautiful hair begins with a healthy scalp. Each product combines the expertise of dermatologists with the therapeutic properties of Vichy’s mineral-rich water from thermal springs.

The secret is in the minerals

Vichy’s naturally mineralised waters spring from the dormant volcanoes of Auvergne. The high concentration of minerals amounts to more than 5 grams per litre, combining Iron to help oxygenate cells, Sulphur to soothe, Potassium and Sodium to regulate hydration, and Silica and Magnesium, known for their regenerative qualities.

A focus on haircare concerns

The brand's first breakthrough came with Dercos Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. Still available today, the formula combines the soothing properties of Vichy Volcanic Water with active ingredients Selenium Disulfide and Cohesyl. With a focus on targeted solutions for concerns including hair loss, dryness, and oiliness, Dercos products deliver.

Scientific breakthroughs

Revered by the Celts and the Romans since 50 BC for their health-giving properties, the springs at Vichy remain a spa destination as does the Vichy Laboratories Institute. Embracing new technologies and ingredients, which Vichy puts through clinical testing, Vichy Dercos continues to innovate with its treatments for healthier hair.
