Brighten and balance your skin tone with SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense, a dark spot corrector that reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, medical procedures or acne.
Formulated with 3% Tranexamic Acid, 1% Kojic Acid, 5% Niacinamide, and 5% HEPES, the treatment targets stubborn brown patches and post-inflammatory discolouration to even the skin tone and help to minimise the appearance of future marks with continued use. In as little as two weeks, the complexion will be unified, radiant and visibly healthier-looking.
Suitable for all skin types.
Free from parabens, silicones, fragrances, gluten and hydroquinone.
Due to the concentration of Kojic acid in this formula, a shift in color is expected. This could lead to a light brown or amber color, but the formula remains effective.
Twice daily, apply three to five drops to face. For morning use, apply after a SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and follow with a SkinCeuticals broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using this product. Do not use on irritated or broken skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

The BEST and EASIEST
I simply applied this over my face for treatment of melasma every night for the past 3 months and have seen a 35-40% improvement in discoloration. Great product and worth every penny.

Great for Age Spots and Acne Scars
This product does an amazing job fading age spots and acne scars (of which I still get in my 40s thanks to unfortunate genes). It is my favorite product in my AM and PM routine. Like most Asians, I've noticed that the first signs of aging in my skin is age spots/discoloration rather than fine lines. This product is a game changer for me because it keeps those age spots at bay.

Working very well
I am really liking this product. I mainly put it on my melasma spots, and they seem to really be fading. I did slightly peel when I first starting using it, but my skin adapted to it quickly.

Excellent Product
First time ordering this product. Have been using it since September and it does everything it claims to do. My brown spots are fading. Use as directed and you will be happy with the results. Another great product from SkinCeuticals.

Works, need time
When I first started using this product I didn't see any results. It was two months later when the dark spots started to fade. The spots get lighter over time. If you stick with the regimen and use sunscreen.. you'll notice a difference. Just note that the spots don't completely disappear. Need to stay out of the sun.

Not as impressed as I thought I'd be
For the cost of skinceuticals products I expect strong results. Been using over a month now and not blown away. I think it's definitely working, especially when applying at least 3 drops, just not as fast as other brightening products I've used.

skinceuticals dark spot remover
I have used several skinceuticals products and I like them all. I have some brown spots and I have used one bottle of this skin discoloration defense and I can definitely tell it is working. I need to continue this but waiting for a sale on skinceuticals again because it is really expensive but it works..

Not sure I could see results
I wasn't blown away by this serum and I'm already using vitamin C that helps even out my skin discoloration. To me, it seems redundant.

Not an overnight miracle
I've been using this product for about five months to treat hyperpigmentation from acne. Some spots seemed to have faded a bit and look much better from how they did but they haven't gone away completely. There is improvement in my skin but it definitely takes time and consistently using this product.
