Tranexamic Acid 3%/Kojic Acid 1%/Niacinamide 5% Topical Gel is a specialized formulation designed for the treatment of skin conditions such as melasma, hyperpigmentation, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This unique blend of active ingredients works synergistically to address these skin concerns effectively.

Tranexamic Acid, a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine, acts as a competitive inhibitor of plasminogen, a substance involved in the breakdown of fibrin and other proteins. This action helps to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and melasma on the skin.

Kojic Acid, a natural skin lightening agent, works by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. This action helps to lighten the skin and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and melasma.

Niacinamide, a form of Vitamin B3, is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to improve skin barrier function. This helps to reduce inflammation and improve the overall health and appearance of the skin.

When used together, these three ingredients provide a comprehensive approach to treating melasma, hyperpigmentation, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Tranexamic Acid reduces the breakdown of proteins, Kojic Acid inhibits melanin production, and Niacinamide reduces inflammation and improves skin barrier function.

It is important to note that this formulation should not be used on broken or irritated skin. Additionally, it is crucial to use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher when using this formulation, as it can increase the skin’s sensitivity to the sun.

If you have any questions about using Tranexamic Acid 3%/Kojic Acid 1%/Niacinamide 5% Topical Gel, please do not hesitate to reach out for further information. It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new skincare regimen.
