What it is:
Kojic acid is a natural compound derived from fungi, known for its ability to inhibit melanin production. It’s one of the most effective ingredients for reducing dark spots and discoloration.
Why it matters:
Sun damage, aging, and acne can all lead to uneven skin tone. Kojic acid helps fade hyperpigmentation and brighten the skin without the harsh effects of hydroquinone.
How we use it:
Our targeted Melaway Dark Spot Corrector Cream brightening product use kojic acid in synergy with niacinamide and licorice root to gently correct dark spots over time.
Dr. Campos' Tip:
“Use kojic acid consistently—results improve with time. Always follow with sunscreen to maintain bright, even skin.”
