Discoloration Defense is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of dark spots and discoloration on the face.  Powered by kojic acid, tranexamic acid and vitamin B3, this advanced formula is a hydroquinone-free skin brightening serum.

Product Description:

Discoloration Defense is the latest-generation dark spot corrector, using a combination of potent and proven anti-discoloration ingredients—including new tranexamic acid—to address key types of skin discoloration.

Everyday elements—including UV exposure, prescription drugs, and some professional treatments—can trigger production of melanin in the skin’s lowest epidermal layers.  This excess melanin rises to the surface of the skin, causing visible skin discoloration.  Discoloration can manifest in a range of ways, including post-acne marks and stubborn brown patches on the cheekbones, forehead, and upper lip.

  • Features a synergistic blend of anti-discoloration ingredients to reduce the appearance of skin discoloration, improve brightness, and minimize the reoccurrence of discoloration (with continued use);
  • 60% average improvement in the appearance of stubborn brown patches;
  • Paraben-free, fragrance-free, silicone-free, gluten-free, and hydroquinone-free;
  • Ideal at-home complement to professional skin discoloration treatments, such as chemical peels or non-ablative laser; always consult with a physician for individual regimen recommendations.

How to Use:

Twice daily, apply 3-5 drops of this skin discoloration serum to the face.
If using in the morning, apply after a SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and follow with a SkinCeuticals broad spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen.

Limit sun exposure while using this product.

Do not use on irritated or broken skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Complete your regimen with a SkinCeuticals sunscreen.  When used together, SkinCeuticals antioxidants and broad-spectrum sunscreens provide more comprehensive protection against visible aging caused by environmental aggressors.
