Advanced Dark Spot Corrector for Hyperpigmentation, Melasma & Uneven Skin Tone

Dermatologist-recommended SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense is a clinically proven dark spot correcting serum designed to visibly improve stubborn discoloration, post-acne marks, melasma, and uneven skin tone. This lightweight daily treatment utilizes a powerful blend of tranexamic acid, niacinamide, and kojic acid to target multiple pathways involved in hyperpigmentation for a brighter, more even-looking complexion.

Unlike harsh brightening treatments, Discoloration Defense provides effective correction while remaining suitable for daily use. Its advanced formula helps reduce the appearance of existing discoloration while supporting overall skin clarity, radiance, and tone uniformity.


Derm Tip

Our dermatology team recommends pairing Discoloration Defense with a daily antioxidant serum and broad-spectrum sunscreen for optimal pigment correction and prevention. Consistent sun protection is essential when treating any form of hyperpigmentation.
