What DERMDOC by Purplle Says

Product Description:

Acne comes and goes but the mark stays forever. That’s why your everyday skincare routine might fall short of treating the underlying spots of inflammatory or pus-filled acne. Over time, this might make your skin look pigmented and dull overall. This is where the science expert, Tranexamic Acid, enters the show! It is scientifically proven to treat acne marks and pigmentation within six to eight weeks of regular use. After this, outstanding results and flawlessly radiant skin are just waiting for you as a reward. DermDoc Tranexamic Acid Serum is thoughtfully curated to minimize discolourations, fade stubborn marks, and boost radiance by bringing out the actual brightness of your skin! Its hydrating, lightweight formula relieves skin irritation and inflammation caused by breakouts. It nourishes the skin without causing dryness and reduces melanin production too! PS: You can also use it on your body to treat marks. Exciting, isn’t it?

Key Ingredients

Tranexamic Acid

Ingredients Details

Tranexamic Acid

Common Name(s): Trans-4-aminomethylcyclohexanecarboxylic acid,txa,cyklokapron

CAS Number: 1197-18-8

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides brightening by inhibiting uv-induced plasminogen activation that triggers melanocyte stimulation.

Why It's Used: Novel brightening mechanism — tranexamic acid targets uv-induced melanocyte stimulation upstream of tyrosinase activity, providing complementary brightening to tyrosinase inhibitors with exceptional tolerability.

How It Works: Lysine analogue binds lysine-binding sites on plasminogen preventing its conversion to plasmin. uv-activated plasmin normally increases keratinocyte arachidonic acid release stimulating melanocyte activity via prostaglandin e2 and alpha-msh. txa blocks this uv-melanocyte signalling cascade upstream of pigment synthesis.

Typically Found In: Brightening serums,anti-melasma products,uv-induced pigmentation

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Tranexamic acid's brightening mechanism was discovered serendipitously — it was originally a haemostasis drug for reducing surgical bleeding. dermatologists noted that patients receiving txa for bleeding showed improved melasma, leading to investigation that revealed the plasminogen–prostaglandin–melanocyte signalling cascade as a completely previously unknown brightening target.
