What is EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel?
EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel is an enzyme-enhanced gel that EltaMD formulates to promote skin comfort, recovery and hydration after non-ablative and mildly ablative procedures. It pairs sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) and glycerin with bromelain and kiwi fruit extract in a clear, cooling base that lets you see the skin underneath. The formula is oil-free, fragrance-free, paraben-free, dye-free and non-comedogenic. Apply it right after a treatment to cool and moisturize the skin, and repeat as your provider directs. Available at SkinCrew in 3 oz ($35).
Sourced direct from EltaMD: guaranteed authentic, batch-fresh, fast US shipping.
The problem
Light laser and resurfacing treatments leave skin feeling hot, tight, itchy and dry for a while afterward. Heavy creams can feel suffocating at that stage, especially on oily skin, and many moisturizers carry fragrance or oils that make treated skin feel worse. People want something that cools and hydrates right away without a greasy layer.
A cooling, clear gel for the first hours after treatment.
Enzyme Hydrogel is water-based and oil-free, so it feels light and cooling the moment it goes on. Hyaluronic acid and glycerin draw in hydration, while bromelain and kiwi fruit extract make up the enzyme side of the formula. EltaMD states that it helps ease the itch and irritation that can follow non-ablative and mildly ablative procedures.

EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel: cooling hydration for post-procedure skin
EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel is a clear gel made for the hours and days after non-ablative and mildly ablative treatments. It hydrates with sodium hyaluronate and glycerin, cools and soothes on contact, and includes an enzyme blend of bromelain and kiwi fruit extract. EltaMD describes it as promoting skin comfort, recovery and hydration, and helping ease the itch and irritation after these procedures.
Because the gel is clear, it does not hide the treated area, and because it is oil-free and non-comedogenic, it suits oily skin that dislikes rich creams. EltaMD lists it as fragrance-free, paraben-free and dye-free. It can go on immediately after treatment and be repeated throughout recovery. Available at SkinCrew, an Authorized EltaMD US Retailer, with fast US shipping.

Why Enzyme Hydrogel Stands Out
- Cooling on contact. The clear, water-based gel feels cool as it goes on, which is welcome when treated skin feels warm and tight.
- Enzyme-enhanced. Bromelain, an enzyme from pineapple, and kiwi fruit extract form the enzyme side of the formula that gives the product its name.
- Hydration without oil. Sodium hyaluronate and glycerin attract and hold water, and the gel is oil-free and non-comedogenic.
- Clear finish. It does not leave a white or greasy film, so the treated area stays visible while you apply it.

Who Enzyme Hydrogel Is For
A strong match for
- Anyone recovering from a non-ablative or mildly ablative treatment
- Oily skin that feels smothered by rich recovery creams
- People who want a cooling gel right after a professional treatment
- Sensitive skin that needs a fragrance-free formula
Tolerance and skin type
EltaMD lists Enzyme Hydrogel as oil-free, fragrance-free, paraben-free, dye-free and non-comedogenic. Bromelain comes from pineapple, so if you know you react to pineapple or kiwi, check with your provider before use, and follow their aftercare instructions.

How to Use Enzyme Hydrogel in a Daily Routine
Enzyme Hydrogel is the cooling, hydrating step right after treatment. If your provider wants a sealing layer, a waterless balm goes on top, and a gentle mineral SPF follows once you are cleared for sunscreen.
Step 1: Cleanse Gently
Step 2: Cool and Seal
Step 3: Protect

EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel FAQ
What does EltaMD Enzyme Hydrogel do?
Enzyme Hydrogel is a cooling, oil-free gel that hydrates and comforts skin after non-ablative and mildly ablative procedures. EltaMD describes it as promoting skin comfort, recovery and hydration, and helping ease the itch and irritation that can follow these treatments.
When should I apply Enzyme Hydrogel?
EltaMD directs that it be applied immediately after a procedure to cool and moisturize the skin, then repeated as directed by your provider. Use clean hands and a generous, even layer.
What are the key ingredients in Enzyme Hydrogel?
The formula hydrates with sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) and glycerin, and its enzyme blend includes bromelain and kiwi fruit extract. It is oil-free, fragrance-free, paraben-free and dye-free, and the clear gel base lets you see the treated skin as you apply it.
Is Enzyme Hydrogel good for oily skin?
Yes. It is a water-based, oil-free and non-comedogenic gel, so it feels light on oily skin that dislikes heavy recovery creams, and it leaves a clear, non-greasy finish. EltaMD also lists it as non-comedogenic, so it will not clog pores.
What is the difference between Enzyme Hydrogel and Laser Balm?
Enzyme Hydrogel is a clear, water-based gel that cools and hydrates. Laser Balm is a waterless petrolatum balm that seals moisture in and helps keep compromised skin moist. They do different jobs, and the gel goes on first if you use both.
Who should use Enzyme Hydrogel?
It is made for skin after non-ablative and mildly ablative procedures, applied right after treatment and through recovery as your provider directs. Its oil-free, fragrance-free gel base also suits oily and sensitive skin that finds rich recovery creams too heavy.
Is SkinCrew an authorized EltaMD retailer in the US?
Yes. SkinCrew is an Authorized EltaMD US Retailer and sources every unit directly from EltaMD, so Enzyme Hydrogel arrives fresh, authentic and in current packaging, with fast US shipping.
