The Science Behind Discoloration Defense

What is Skin Discoloration?

Skin discoloration is a result of excess melanin production due to exposure to environmental aggressors, inflammation, or a medical condition. Discoloration can appear in multiple ways, such as dark spots, redness, or post-acne marks. Discoloration Defense is clinically proven to significantly improve dark spots, post-acne marks, or uneven skin tone in as early as two weeks.

Discoloration Do’s + Don’ts

DO: Use Sunscreen Daily
To effectively reduce discoloration and improve overall skin tone, always use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen.

DON’T: Skip Antioxidants
Exfoliate and brighten skin while correcting dark spots by incorporating an antioxidant-rich serum like Discoloration Defense into your routine.

Treatments for Discoloration

Reduce discoloration by combining Discoloration Defense with a professional treatment such as chemical peels or intense pulsed light (IPL). Chemical peels exfoliate the skin’s surface to reveal a smoother, more radiant surface, while IPL is a non-invasive treatment that penetrates the skin’s surface to target redness and dark spots. Depending on your tone and needs, either or both treatments can improve discoloration.
