Be minimalist's tranexamic acid is amazing. It helped lighten my dark neck folds. It's so nice to see you suggest it. Feels good :)
dr dray with Indian minimalist product in her thumbnail.. instant click💜
Good to see Minimalist got your attention Dr. 😊
I love the minimalist serum! It's so gentle and can be easily paired with tretinoin and it's so affordably priced (costs less than $6 in sales). You should try out more minimalist products, especially the vitamin c serums (there are two), alpha arbutin serum and the light fluid sunscreen .
Could you do a refresh on your cosmetic procedures series? The old ones are good but I think you've gotten a lot better at making videos and its been 7 years since those. Much love!
Love how you gave us an affordable alternative Dr.dray🙌😄💗
You're teaching me something new again, Dr Dray. I've never heard of this product. I'm really so clueless when it comes to all of these products, trends etc. but thanks to you, I feel like I'm getting the best professional opinion and education. Thanks, as always, for all of your hard work. Happy Friday! I hope you, your sweet momma and little Tybee have a wonderful weekend!! 💖
Thorough thoughtful video as usual! Thanks Dr Dray ❤️
Thank you. I’ve been evaluating skin and dark spot brighteners for ages. This was the information I needed.
Thank you for this topic..very informative..
I love minimalist! Hope you review more products from them.
I can vouch for the Inkey List Tranexamic acid, honestly not sure why or how exactly, but I can see big results with it for dark spots on my forehead. Also causes no irritation and it is at a good price point so I can recommend it to anyone with dark spots/melasma.
Minimalist is cheap yet so so so effective,most of my products are minimalist and their barrier repair cream😍...ohh my god i have bought 5 tubes of it in 1 year because i use lot of actives and end up destroying my skin barrier😅 and it heals in just a day or 2..but be warned it stings like hell in broken skin barrier but worth it 💯

I have three big sunspots that I have worked with the last four years. I have gotten to the point where I throw everything at them and religiously use my sunscreen. I am satisfied when I’m able to suppress them significantly. They never completely go away. Red light helps as well. I am content with a significant fading and skin brightening. I had to adjust my expectations.
Thank you for such thorough information. 💖

I'm convinced the algorithm is our mind boss now. I saw a new recommended video by an "almost 60," year old man telling his secrets and he mentioned a TA lotion he uses. I'd never heard of it and was doing a basic google to learn more. Not 12 hours later here you are giving all the information! I appreciate you, Dr. Dray.
Thank you Dr Dray! I am using tranexamic acid as it is Rx'd to me. Knowing that there are some benefits like barrier function and less redness. Which for me I noticed because my skin is very reactive so it's always red. Not so since I started using 5% tranexamic acid. My skin is so much better. Thank you for making this video it cleared up so much that I didn't understand or needed to know.
Hi, Dr. Dray! Could you please make a dedicated video reviewing products from the Minimalist brand?
Thank you! Would love your take on sun spots.
I just clicked on this video. Glad to see it. Tranexamic acid is a no-go for me because I have Prothrombin G20210A. I'm also now post menopausal so this means HRT is also out.
Thanks for clearing this up! I’ve been wondering this.

I was put on tranexamic acid (pill form) for rosacea briefly. It was at the tail end of my treatment plan, my rosacea (demodex) was already very well under control. I decided to come off it because I didn't like the effects it had on my period. I wasn't on it long enough to see any effects on the redness. The theory was it might reduce the remaining redness AFTER my demodectic rosacea was put into full remission. Ultimately, I just stuck to Metronidazole cream for another couple years. Now, 6 years after starting my rosacea treatment, my redness is VERY minimal and I haven't had a flare in years (I don't have demodex anymore though). So it ended up not being a big part of my treatment, but we gave it a shot anyway.
I’m going to give this a shot
Dr Dray! You are the best! Should we use tinted sunscreen or just a clear sunscreen on the PIH area? Thank you 🩷
I love the Mary and may eye cream with it in it. It states that you can use it as a spot treatment (for marks/hyperpigmentation) or as a facial cream for same reasons & the other brighting benefits
FaceTheory has Exaglow Serum, 5% tranexamic acid, vitamin C, Niacinamide, lactic acid, and liquorice. In the UK it’s £24 (I don’t think there’s a great difference in the exchange rate to dollars - don’t know about elsewhere). I’m not sure where it’s based. I have rosacea and some hyperpigmentation. I don’t know how well it’s working, yet. But I’ve had no issues with it.
The Inkey list Tranexamic Acid cleared up my Post Inflammatory Pigmentation from Folliculitus and Keratosis pilaris. I now use it 2 x weekly to prevent reoccurance as unfortunately due to PCOS I constantly battle folliculitus and ingrown hairs on my face as I have grown a beard.
I’ve been using Good Molecules discoloration serum and I’ve noticed immediate results.

Recently trx is very common in every mainstream drugstore cosmetics in Japan. I guess it doing stg. And i believe its better for prevention of developing melasma and PIH. May work more effectively against PIE and rosacea.
Paula’s choice discolouration repair here in Australia $117 so I use Naturium TXA and Arbutin both $39.95 each
So tranexamic can be used in a preventive way in melanin production?
Read that needs to be at 10%, in order to treat Melasma properly. Is that accurate? And what about for Rosesea or general redness?
5% tranexamic gel really visibly reduced my facial birthmark I’ve had since I was a child. This has been the biggest fastest improvement I’ve seen of all the whitening serums/actives I’ve tried. I started off with red light therapy, improved a little, then differin nightly also improved more. I use all 3 now and hopefully soon I won’t need to slap on thick layer of concealer anymore.

Dr dray; you mentioned that it reduces inflammatory markers; it sounds like to me that it doesn’t allow for inflammation, isn’t that bad? If the skin doesn’t respond to external factors?? What does it mean for the skin if it can’t go into inflammation mode??
i have been using be minimalist tranexamic acid since March 2020 along with tretinoin 0.025% cream and it did wonders for the hyperpigmentation i had developed on my face due to usage of contraceptives. Currently i am pairing it with minimalist alpha arbutin
I’m about to try txa for telangiectasia caused by rosacea, cos de baha has an inexpensive 10%, I will consider the minimalist for maintenance as I have oily congested skin and have to use bha+aha regularly or the build up of sebum and dead skin aggravates rosacea. Never seen anyone speak on either topic, thanks for this video 😊

I know this for sure TA from Skinceuticals Discoloration Defense is effective, with 3% TA, 1 % kojic, 5 % niacinamide, you can use the whole bottle for 2 years, 1 drop will do for the whole face, i dont have melasma but a colleague of mine in her early 50's had a very bad melasma I gave her a 3 weeks of this serum to use to test it out, she came back to me after 5 days to tell me she wants the serum i gave her, coz my oh my it did lighten up her melasma as she been treating it for so many years. I ended up giving her the bottle so she can continue and im excited to see her face transform

ii've been combining dry brushing, a few of tonya zavasta's suggestions, dr dray's recommendations, gatden of wisdom intense spot serum, the 60-yr old man's Fade serum suggestion & tinted sunscreen or bb cream w/spf to reduce sun spots & hyperpigmentation from bug bites (not acne nor melasma). Had shingles in 2012 * that took awhile for scars to fade, & my assessment maintains dry brushing & body & facial gua sha make the difference.
Hey Dr. Dray if you get a chance sometime hopefully you can address the issue of somebody who grew up in the sun and waited later in life to start caring for their skin properly 🙏🏼 I know alot of sun damage cannot be undone but do you have recommendations on products to try that can just overall help skin health in this case? Edit: later in life = 30’s in my case.
Please tell about Seborrheic keratoses
I watched Labmuffing video on tranexamatic acid. She said that it’s too big of molecule to penetrate the skin. After your video I am so, so conflicted… I’ve been using the combination of that plus alpha arbutin and kojic acid. After a year and a half I can totally say, it does Not work. At least for my sun melasma. But you are right, it does not agrivate my rosacea. But what’s the point if it doesn’t work….

Are this products containing bakuchiol good for vitiligo skin? Have any help?
Dr. Dray since it works on blood vessels can we assume tranexamic acid could also improve rosacea (specifically redness/dilated vessels)? OMG you already answered, and I have steroid-induced rosacea from long-term use of the infamous Mario Badescu products containing undisclosed steroids... It's a good option since my skin is very sensitive and can't tolerate niacinamide and azelaic acid. Thank you, Dr. Dray! ❤
Dr. Dray do you have a layering routine for treating hyperpigmentation using melasyn and tranexamic acid? For example, Can we use them on the same day or do we have to use on altetnate days?
I've used Touch for about an year and a half and it includes TA as well as other dark spot treating/preventing ingredients. I've had great results overall with it helping to clear me from last summer's increase in melasma (despite sun avoidance, sunscreen, and hat wearing) but I am back to my summer look now after 10 days in Mexico. My Touch is almost gone and I have been wondering if there is something that would be better. Thanks for this video and the latest one on the La Roche Posay options.

Totally off topic here. Ive been in the skincare field for decades now. I know most viewers on here dont agree with the natural skincare or clean as some call it. I wasn't either. However, I was just diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. My home nurse told me to go all organic/natural in my skincare. Shes been a nurse for a very looooong time. So Im wondering if theres some truth in to these claims of toxins,etc harming us and causing cancer or other diseases. Please be kind and no bashing. I would very much like some recommendations on skincare lines that are mostly fragrance free that would be good for my issue. I already use Vanicreams products as well as some others. I dont really care for LaRoche Posay and the only products I like from CeraVe are their cleansers. No Cetaphil either please. Much appreciated.
