Tranexamic Acid

Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic amino acid known for its brightening and skin tone-evening properties. It effectively reduces hyperpigmentation, such as dark spots, melasma, and sunspots, by inhibiting the synthesis of melanin. Tranexamic Acid also has anti-inflammatory effects, which help soothe the skin and reduce redness. It is commonly used in serums, creams, and brightening treatments to promote a more even, radiant skin tone without irritation. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
