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.

Works for my Post-Acne Scars
I've been using this product for over a month right now, and I think one can sense my desperation to rid myself of my hyperpigmentation by being willing to spend this much on an ounce of product...haha. I should be clear that I am using several other products for discoloration concurrently - however, I started them months before I included this in my regimen. Therefore, it is easy to determine what is has been the result of this product. Furthermore, it is my understanding that unless you're willing to get an intensive skin peel at a dermatologist's office, getting rid of hyperpigmentation is a gradual process that often involves multiple products (AHAs, BHAs, sunscreen, retinol, etc.). My pigmentation is caused by inflammation from acne and while I have made great progress lightening it, I bought this to get more over the last "hump" since I had seemed to hit a wall over the last few months. For the first two weeks of using this product everyday (twice a day), I didn't see any difference and worried that I wasted my money. However, by week 3 I began to see a lightening of some of the scars, and I was even able to stop wearing foundation. Going into my second month of using it, I am continuing to see a difference as the weeks go on. However, I think it is important to note that Skinceuticals says that they did clinical trials for 3 months (or 12 weeks), so that may mean it will take that long to get results, and I do foresee the need for a second bottle before probably by the end of month 2, so it will be an investment for some. Nonetheless, if you're comfortable spending the money, I would recommendn it.

New addition to my routine!
I found this after I decided to go hydroquinone free. I've only used it a few weeks, but so far so good! It's very gentle and a little goes a long way. I'll definitely be purchasing this again!

undecided on results
I am halfway through the bottle and haven't noticed a change. Before this was introduced I had been using C E Ferulic. Maybe that did the job Discoloration Defense is supposed to do. I am using both now (at different times) as I believe in the science of Skinceuticals. Complaint: white painted covering on bottle peels off leaving pieces of white behind.

So good, so much $$
It may be 98 dollars, but it is soooooo good on my dark spots. I wish it was less expensive, but hey, that it the process of beauty. Saves me from getting some kind of unnatural lazer treatment!

Miracle for my acne scars
I have been using this product for about two and a half weeks now, and I can already see a difference in my skin. I used to have completely acne free skin but over the last several months I have had a problem with breakouts on my cheeks. I try hard not to pick at or pop them, but when the blemish goes away, a scar remains no matter what. Since starting the product, the pigmentation in the scars has gone significantly down. I'm starting to feel like I can start not wearing make up again. I have only been applying the serum during my night time skin routine but it has already made a world of difference. Will buy again!!!! My only complaint is the packaging because I like to be able to see how much product I have remaining.

Expected More
I have used Skinmedica Lytera 2.0 and love it for post-acne marks. I wanted to try the Discoloration Defense for the same reason. I have used it for a month and have not seen much results. There is little to no lightening of my hyperpigmentation. I also found the texture a little to tacky for my skin. I have heard that this seems to work better on Melasma.
