The highly effective lightening action is the combined effect of 4% Niacinamide, papain and vitamin C. Niacinamide blocks melanin transport to the epidermis, effectively preventing new hyperpigmentation from forming and existing discolourations from spreading or intensifying. Papain speeds up depigmentation by exfoliating the outer layers of the hyper pigmented epidermis. This also allows vitamin C to penetrate deeper into the skin, further enhancing the lightening and revitalising effect. Allantoin hydrates and nourishes the skin, alleviating any irritations. The cream provides a gradual lightening effect without causing depigmentation of healthy skin. , Directions for use: Apply the cream to hyperpigmented areas daily at bedtime. Skin lightening can be seen in 4-6 weeks of product use. Avoid sun exposure during the treatment and for 10 weeks afterwards. It is recommended to use Pharmaceris W SPF 50+ day cream as a complementary treatment.
