Tranexamic acid is a new type of high-efficiency whitening agent that can remove melanin and effectively lighten dark spots.
Tranexamic acid has a four-fold whitening mechanism:

while blocking melanin aggregation. - Tranexamic acid can effectively calm the stress melanin accumulation induced by deep skin inflammation.
- Tranexamic acid can effectively block the secondary oxidation reaction of melanin (Mei’s reaction)
- Tranexamic acid can effectively reduce the melanin that has been precipitated and promote the peeling of the melanin that has been formed.
