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.

magic product for blemishes
I used a sample of this for two weeks straight, and it significantly eased my acne scars and made my skin look fairer and smoother, also less oily in the t zone! It's well worth the price tag and I'll invest in a full size product in the near future.

Very good for preventing dark spots
I was on a hydroquinone (contrary to popular opinion, this is actually a very safe ingredient for skincare, look into the study analysis for more details!), retinoic acid, hydrocortisone, and kojic acid compound cream prescribed by my dermatologist for very severe hyperpigmentation and acne scars. Once the scars had been essentially eliminated from my face, my dermatologist recommended this serum to prevent future pigmentation from acne. I have been using this for the past 3 months and have had great results with it. While it does not particularly reduce current pigmentation, it definitely prevents future pigmentation from occurring. I also have a darker complexion and am extremely prone to scarring. The diligent use of this serum along with sunscreen has helped to prevent future scarring very well. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to prevent scarring and pigmentation!

Great for discoloration
It is lightening my stubborn discoloration in just few weeks of use. Skin is more even, brighter. It's less harsh than some other products with the same brightening benefits.

Not effective for my discolouration.
This product was not effective at all for my deep hyperpigmentation around my mouth area. I really wanted it to work given other products from SkinCeuticals have suited me.

Pretty good so far
I have several discoloration spots on my face that my annual IPL doesn't help, so I decided to try this. I've been using the Discoloration Defense for about 3 weeks, so it is a little early for a judgement call - that's why I choose 4 stars. There does seem to be some reduction in the discoloration on my face. I took pictures when I started and will compare when I reach the 6 week mark. I have also been using it on the back of my hands and that does appear to be quite successful. I have high hopes for the spots on my face.

Too soon to tell
I've had this serum for a couple of weeks so I feel like it's a little too soon to make a decision on it . I have not seen any drastic improvements and my first week of using it I started to break out with cystic pimples which is rare for me. I was talking to my esthetician who does acne treatments on my face (&swears by Skinceuticals ) and does not think this product specifically would break me out . She also said it takes time for this to really start seeing results . So I'll wait a couple of more weeks to see how I really feel about the discoloration defense.

Caused my rosacea to flare up
Was so excited to try this for my hyperpigmentation but unfortunately, I had to return because it irritated my skin and caused my rosacea to flare up.

Like it so far
This is my first time using skinceuticals product. I have lite brown spot on my face and I have been trying to find a product just to treat the spot. So, far it seems like it is working, it has definitely helped with brightening my complexion but to see the result I have to use for longer term. Finger crossed!

Not sure yet
I purchased this product about three weeks ago and use it twice a day every day. I haven't seen much change ( I know it's only been three weeks) so I'm giving it 3 stars until 12 weeks hits! The serum is light and I have no problem layering it with my HA, lotion and sun screen.
