Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic derivative of lysine, with a structure partially similar to tyrosine. Clinical trials have confirmed that it is suitable for various skin types, providing effects such as pigmentation reduction, whitening, and spot fading. It is effective for post-sun hyperpigmentation, dark spots (melasma, freckles, age spots, etc.), sensitive skin, and acne, as well as for post-treatment care following laser or IPL procedures. Tranexamic Acid is therefore recommended for use in creams, lotions, serums, and facial masks.
