What does pharmaceutical-grade healing look like in your daily skincare routine? For Centellian24, the answer has been the same since 1968. Born from the clinical expertise of Dongkook Pharmaceutical—the company behind Korea's most trusted wound care solutions—Centellian24 has spent decades translating medical-grade recovery science into skincare that works quietly, consistently, and without compromise. At the heart of every formula lies TECA (Titrated Extract of Centella Asiatica), a clinically refined ingredient that has defined the brand's commitment to skin recovery and long-term resilience. This International Women's Day, Kiokii and... sits down with Centellian24 to ask the question every skincare lover should be asking: what does it look like when a brand chooses to heal your skin—instead of just impressing it?
The Interview: A Conversation with Centellian24 CEO
1. Which product best represents your brand philosophy, and why?
"Our signature product is Madeca Cream—not simply because it is our best-known product, but because it most clearly reflects who we are as a brand. Rooted in a pharmaceutical heritage that began in 1968, our expertise comes from developing Korea's iconic wound care solutions. Madeca Cream was created by translating that medical knowledge into a product designed for everyday skincare. It represents our belief that true skincare starts with healing, recovery, and long-term skin stability."
2. What was the original problem that inspired you to create this brand?
"Skin is not perfect every day—and it never has to be. For many women, hormonal changes and daily stress naturally affect the skin and can cause repeated irritation. We wanted to create a brand focused on supporting skin recovery. Our goal was to provide effective, at-home care solutions that help calm sensitive or stressed skin without unnecessary irritation."
3. What does "care" mean to your brand when it comes to formulation and design?
"To us, care means creating an environment where the skin can restore itself. We focus on formulations that help the skin remain comfortable, balanced, and resilient over time. At the same time, we place a strong emphasis on performance. Our products are designed to be gentle yet effective—delivering real results without unnecessary stress to the skin."
4. Is there a detail in your products that people often overlook but you're especially proud of?
"One detail we are especially proud of is that TECA is included in nearly all of our products. Even when a product highlights a different key ingredient, TECA remains at the core of our formulations. This reflects our belief that minimizing irritation and supporting recovery should never be optional. TECA has been studied and refined since 1968, and incorporating this technology across our entire line is our way of staying true to our roots."
5. What message do you hope women take away when they interact with Centellian24?
"We hope women see our brand as a name they can trust. Not skincare that follows trends or relies on viral moments—but skincare that is effective, consistent, and grounded in real expertise. We are committed to becoming a brand that women can rely on with confidence, and we will continue to work toward earning that trust every day."
