## Overview

Paula's Choice CLINICAL Discoloration Repair Serum is a potent, fragrance- and paraben-free formula featuring 3% tranexamic acid, 5% niacinamide, and 0.5% bakuchiol. Designed to visibly fade stubborn dark spots, post-acne marks, and sun damage, it promotes an even skin tone suitable for all skin types, including melasma-prone skin. Consistent use over 8-12 weeks delivers clinically-backed brightening results while supporting skin health with antioxidant vitamin E and milk thistle.

## Description

A potent serum that targets brown gray patches while helping prevent new discoloration from forming with a blend of tranexamic acid, bakuchiol and niacinamide. The key ingredients in this multi-level formula play a specific role in helping to prevent the formation of dark spots while actively improving existing mask-like discolorations. Research shows that when used consistently over time, these powerful bio-actives can dramatically improve the appearance of skin’s natural tone and color plus discourage further discolorations. 3% tranexamic acid, 5% niacinamide and 0.5% bakuchiol work together with pure tocopherol (vitamin E) and milk thistle to target and steadily improve the look of dark spots and discoloration through distinct pathways in skin. Together, the blend promotes an even skin tone and fades the look of stubborn, diffuse discolorations and spots. Limit initial use to three times per week; gradually increase frequency to up to twice per day. Apply over face and neck, avoiding the eyelids and lips. For daytime, always finish with SPF 30 and limit sun exposure as much as possible while using this product. Note: Expect visible results after 8-12 weeks of consistent use.
