Concentrate application on the stubborn areas of discoloration you want to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this dark spot cream with retinol or exfoliating acids?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula already contains 0.25% retinol and glycolic acid, so adding another retinoid or strong exfoliant to the same area may increase the potential for dryness or irritation. Keep the routine balanced, introduce intensive actives carefully and reduce frequency if your skin does not tolerate the combination well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream suitable for sensitive skin?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an active corrective formula containing both glycolic acid and retinol, so highly sensitive or reactive skin may require a slower introduction. Use only as tolerated and consider professional guidance if your skin is easily irritated or you are already using other intensive treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need sunscreen while using SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. SkinMedica states that the alpha hydroxy acid in this product may increase sensitivity to sunburn. Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using the product and for one week after discontinuing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream during pregnancy or breastfeeding?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. SkinMedica specifically advises against using Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream if you are pregnant, lactating or planning to become pregnant. Follow the manufacturer's guidance and discuss your skincare routine with your healthcare professional when appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream contain hydroquinone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHydroquinone does not appear in the supplied ingredient list. The formula instead uses a combination that includes tranexamic acid, niacinamide, glycolic acid, retinol, kojic dipalmitate and THD ascorbate to support visible discoloration correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream help fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or PIH, refers to flat dark marks that can remain after acne or other skin inflammation has resolved. SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream is specifically designed to address stubborn dark spots left by acne-related skin damage, making it a strong option for visible post-acne discoloration. PIH is different from red post-acne marks or indented and raised acne scars, and consistent daily sun protection is especially important when working to improve lingering pigmentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use SkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Dark Spot Cream with the other Even \u0026amp; Correct products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the Even \u0026amp; Correct collection can be used to build a more comprehensive routine for visible discoloration. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.yourskincaresource.com\/products\/skinmedica-even-correct-advanced-brightening-treatment\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e works as a daily serum for overall uneven tone and hyperpigmentation, while \u003cstrong\u003eSkinMedica Even \u0026amp; Correct Brightening Treatment Pads\u003c\/strong\u003e provide exfoliating support to help improve brightness and skin renewal.
