Featuring a proprietary blend of ingredients, SkinMedica® Lytera™ Skin Brightening Complex works to brighten and even skin tone by reducing the appearance of dark spots and skin discoloration. This luxurious formula contains highly effective antioxidants which help to reveal a smooth, luminous complexion-a naturally beautiful you.
"Recent advances have given numerous options for those seeking anti-aging therapies. However, treatment of dark patches and hyperpigmentation is just as important in rejuvenation as fine lines and wrinkles, and there is a lack of truly efficacious treatments available in this arena," says board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Annie Chiu. "The strong clinical results and multi-modal formulation of Lytera™ Skin Brightening Complex makes it a unique and vital addition to any brightening regimen" added Dr. Chiu.
In a recently published clinical study*:
- 85% of patients saw a greater improvement in overall skin condition after 12 weeks of treatment, as compared to 68% of patients treated with 4% hydroquinone.
- 79% of patients reported greater improvement in evenness of skin tone after 12 weeks of treatment, as compared to 65% treated with 4% hydroquinone.
