Description
Tranexamic acid has recently become increasingly common in skin-care products thanks to its science-backed benefits. It can treat kinds of hyperpigmentation, including acne scarring, PIH, PIE. According to research, topically-applied tranexamic acid works by inhibiting a pigment-producing enzyme in your skin called tyrosinase. This interaction keeps melanocytes, or the cells that form melanin, in your skin from becoming overstimulatedwhich is what causes dark spots in the first place. In addition to controlling the uneven production of melanin, then Tranexamic acid will help calm the skin, reduce inflammation, and help promote the health of the skin’s natural barrier. Kojic acid can help scavenge and counteract skin-damaging free radicals caused by exposure to things such as UV damage and pollution and have anti-inflammatory and anti-viral property.
