A New Concept: "Low-Irritation Spot Care." BUB Co., Ltd. Launches New Spot Care Method 'NEWTON'

BUB Co., Ltd. has launched 'NEWTON,' a new low-irritation and reproducible spot care method, targeting individuals who have hesitated to undergo spot treatments due to concerns about pain and downtime. Unlike conventional high-irritation procedures, NEWTON focuses on skin cell turnover to promote the natural discharge of pigment.

BUB Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yoshiki Umezawa), which develops and wholesales products for aesthetic salons, has been introducing advanced beauty treatments such as Lalapeel, Lemon Bottle, and Aquaderm to the Japanese market.

While demand for beauty treatments is increasing, there remains an untapped segment in the spot care market where individuals hesitate to proceed due to concerns about pain and downtime, thinking, "I want to remove them, but I can't take the plunge."

To address these challenges, the company is now launching 'NEWTON,' a new spot care method that is low-irritation and designed for reproducibility.

**Current State of the Spot Care Market and the Presence of Untapped Segments**

In recent years, the spot care market has continued to expand. However, concerns about pain, downtime, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) have remained barriers, leaving a significant demand untapped.

Against this backdrop, BUB Co., Ltd. has begun to deploy 'NEWTON,' a new method based on the innovative concept of "low-irritation spot care."

**■ "Low-Irritation Spot Care" - A New Approach: "NEWTON"**

In contrast to conventional physical approaches like "shaving or burning," NEWTON focuses on the skin's turnover function, adopting a design that "guides pigment along the natural flow of excretion."

Spots are often activated by external stimuli, and conventional high-irritation treatments have been problematic as they can lead to repeated hyperpigmentation.

NEWTON, based on a topical application approach, minimizes irritation and doesn't merely remove spots but constructs a "flow to end spots" through three designed processes:

* "Exfoliation" to promote turnover
* "Discharge" to guide melanin out
* "Sealing" to prevent re-pigmentation

**■ Optimal Approach with High-Concentration Liquid × High-Adhesion Paste**

The treatment utilizes:

* "High-concentration liquid" for relatively shallow, widespread spots
* "High-adhesion paste" for dark, pinpoint spots where targeted action is required

This differentiation allows for an approach that "controls irritation while moving closer to results" by:

* Avoiding excessive irritation to shallow layers
* Delivering appropriate action to necessary areas

As a result, it achieves:

* Suppression of unnecessary inflammation
* Reduction of PIH risk
* Stable treatment reproducibility

**High-Concentration Liquid Ingredients:**

Hydrolyzed sponge (spicule) / Protease / Capryloyl salicylic acid / Others

**High-Adhesion Paste Ingredients:**

Salicylic acid / Papain / Fruit acid complex (bilberry, sugarcane, lemon, etc.) / Others

**After Cream Ingredients:**

Hydroquinone / Bakuchiol / Glutathione / Acetyl tyrosine / Others

**■ Menu Design Achieving Lower Prices**

NEWTON has re-evaluated its manufacturing, logistics, and treatment design, enabling it to be offered at a lower price compared to traditional spot removal methods.

With a clear pricing structure, it encourages a shift in customer behavior from "a treatment too expensive to consider" to "a treatment to try first and expand if needed."

**■ Expanding Reach to Untapped Segments**

Through its low-irritation design and optimized pricing, NEWTON aims to reach those who have previously been unable to commit to spot care. This is not merely an addition to the menu but also serves as a measure to broaden the market base.

**■ Background of BUB Co., Ltd.'s Deployment**

BUB Co., Ltd. has been a leader in introducing next-generation beauty trends, such as:

* Fourth-generation LHA peeling "Lalapeel"
* Organic fat dissolver "Lemon Bottle"

The company evaluated the introduction of NEWTON for its potential to bring about a new change in the concept of spot care in the aesthetic field, as well as its high reproducibility in practical settings.

Furthermore, the company, while handling both domestic and international products, has faced challenges such as:

* Risk of continuous operation due to unstable supply
* Price pressure due to increased logistics costs
* Balancing offering price and customer value

To address these issues, by reviewing the entire process from manufacturing design to logistics, they simultaneously achieved:

* Establishment of a stable supply system
* Optimization of prices through reduced logistics costs
* Ensuring reproducibility through standardization of quality criteria

As a result, for introducing salons, the product design is "easy to handle, easy to propose, and easy to continue," offering value as a product that considers practical operation, not just a new item.

**■ As a New Option in the Spot Care Market**

In recent years, approaches to spot care have diversified, and in addition to the aggressive perspective of "removal," the defensive perspective of "risk reduction" has also become important.
