Description:
Skarfix TX Cream is a topical formulation designed to treat hyperpigmentation conditions such as melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and dark spots. It combines several active ingredients that work through different mechanisms to lighten skin discoloration. Tranexamic acid helps to reduce melanin production by inhibiting the plasminogen/plasmin system in melanocytes.
Kojic acid dipalmitate is a tyrosinase inhibitor, interfering with the enzyme needed for melanin synthesis. Arbutin, a natural derivative of hydroquinone, also inhibits tyrosinase activity, leading to skin lightening. Vitamin C (often as a stable derivative like sodium ascorbyl phosphate) is an antioxidant that can brighten skin and reduce melanin formation.
Niacinamide (a form of vitamin B3) helps to reduce hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the transfer of melanosomes (pigment-containing vesicles) from melanocytes to keratinocytes and has anti-inflammatory properties. This multi-pronged approach aims to effectively reduce existing dark spots and prevent the formation of new ones, resulting in a more even skin tone.
The cream is typically applied once or twice daily to the affected areas as directed by a dermatologist. Users should use sunscreen during the day to protect treated skin from further pigmentation. Common side effects may include mild irritation or redness at the application site.
