# Tranexamic acid

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/tranexamic-acid

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Ireland.

Tranexamic acid visibly clears stubborn dark spots and calms persistent redness while improving overall skin tone. It suits dry skin and oily skin particularly well and typically comes in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum). Because of its gentle nature, it layers easily into any existing daily routine.

This page shows tranexamic acid products with a Lovi page. For every product, and a routine built for your skin, use the Lovi app.

## Questions and answers

### What does tranexamic acid do for the skin?

Tranexamic acid helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone related to melasma and sun damage. It may also help improve redness and inflammation when applied regularly.

[Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32588531/)

### How do you use tranexamic acid?

You may use topical tranexamic acid twice daily as a facial [serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum) to help reduce hyperpigmentation and inflammation in sun-damaged skin. It is also applied topically after professional treatments like microneedling or laser therapy to help improve melasma.

[Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32588531/)

### Should you use tranexamic acid in the morning or at night?

You may use tranexamic acid twice daily. A facial serum with a tranexamic acid derivative significantly reduced melanin and redness after eight weeks of twice-daily application.

[Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32588531/)

### Can you use tranexamic acid every day?

Yes, you can use topical tranexamic acid twice daily as a facial serum to help improve hyperpigmentation and sun-damaged skin over several weeks. It may also be applied regularly after microneedling or laser treatments to help reduce melasma severity.

[Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32588531/)

### Does tranexamic acid cause purging or irritation?

Topical tranexamic acid may cause redness and sensitivity during recovery when combined with laser treatments. It is unlikely to cause purging.

### Which skin types is tranexamic acid best for?

Tranexamic acid works for all skin types, with Lovi rating products differently depending on your skin's needs. For example, dry and sensitive skin types see a superior fit with products like NATURIUM Tranexamic Topical Acid 5% and IPSA Time Reset Aqua. Oily and acne-prone skin types achieve a superior fit with products like Topicals Faded Serum and Anua [Niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/niacinamide) 10% + TXA 4% Serum.
