02 Science & Proof
Dr Webster's Recommendation: SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense is a layerable, daily-use serum that targets dark marks, helping to brighten the skin without aggravating it. Ideal for use post-hydroquinone treatment, or as a standalone home care routine with the inclusion of a SkinCeuticals antioxidant serum and retinoid. Always use a high-factor, broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect and prevent the skin against UV-induced hyperpigmentation.
