WHY DOES IT MATTER?

  • Unfiltered water can contain chlorine, heavy metals (such as magnesium, calcium, copper, lead, arsenic), insect eggs, rust from aging infrastructure, and other contaminants that may harm your skin and hair. These impurities can lead to issues such as dry skin, acne, dandruff, and damaged hair. Using a filtered showerhead helps remove these harmful substances, promoting healthier skin and hair.

  • Our skin is our body's largest organ, absorbing water like a sponge every time we shower. Showering in unclean water can lead to premature aging, dry skin, acne, dandruff, psoriasis, and damaged hair.
    On the other hand, showering in clean, filtered water is essential for maintaining healthier skin, stronger hair, and overall well-being.

  • Hard water contains high levels of dissolved minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can lead to issues such as soap scum, dull-looking clothes, and residue on dishes. Soft water has been treated to remove these minerals, leaving primarily sodium ions. Rainwater is naturally soft, but as it travels through the ground, it accumulates minerals, becoming hard. The Amaya Filtered Showerhead uses advanced filtration media, including KDF-55 and Calcium Sulfite, to effectively remove chlorine and heavy metals, providing you with cleaner, softer water.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • The DermiFlow Filtered Showerhead uses advanced filtration technology to remove chlorine, heavy metals, and other impurities from your shower water. This ensures that the water you use is clean and safe for your skin and hair.

  • Depending on your water usage, the filter may last up to 6 months, but replacing it every 3 months is recommended for optimal performance and contaminant removal.

  • We conducted independent third-party tests to verify that our showerhead removes 99.9% of lead, 99% of chlorine, 98.5% Chloramine, and Class II particles as small as 0.001 mm  throughout the filter's six-month lifespan, assuming regular daily use by one person. This performance exceeds standard certifications, ensuring you receive high-quality filtration.

EASY TO USE

  • Absolutely. In four easy steps:

    1. Remove your old showerhead: Use the custom wrench provided with your DermiFlow Showerhead to unscrew the existing showerhead.
    2. Check the filter: Our showerhead comes preloaded with a filter. However, you can unscrew the face to confirm the filter is properly in place.
    3. Install the DermiFlow Showerhead: Wrap the threaded part of the exposed pipe with the included tape twice and tear. Twist on the DermiFlow Showerhead until snug, then use the wrench to ensure a secure fit and prevent leaks.
    4. Enjoy clean water: Experience the benefits of filtered water for your skin and hair
  • The DermiFlow Filtered Showerhead is compatible with all standard 1/2-inch shower arms, which are common in most modern shower setups.
    As long as your bathroom has a standard wall or ceiling-mounted shower arm, the DF Showerhead will be compatible.

  • You can easily install the DermiFlow Showerhead yourself by following this simple guide. If you encounter any issues or have questions, feel free to contact us at hello@dermiflow.com.

Other Questions

  • As the body’s largest organ, the skin plays a vital role in overall health.

    Because it can absorb substances from the water we bathe in, ensuring that this water is clean and free from contaminants is essential for protecting both skin integrity and general well-being.

  • Dermatologists recommend showering at 98–101°F (37–38°C) for healthy skin, though cooler showers can boost circulation.

  • While our initial product focuses on transforming your shower experience, we plan to expand our filtration solutions to other faucets in the future. Stay tuned for updates by subscribing to our newsletter.

  • The mineral content in water can influence the taste and texture of certain foods. For instance, the water in Naples, Italy is often credited for giving its world-famous pizza dough its unique character. While such minerals may enhance baking, they are far less kind to your skin and hair. That’s why filtered water is best for personal care, leave the hard water to the pizzaiolos.


We hope this helps you understand the importance of water quality and how DermiFlow's Filtered Showerhead can enhance your daily routine.
