Every ingredient, intentional

What's in the formula, what it does, and why our physicians chose it.

and why our physicians chose it.

Niacinamide

By decreasing melanin transfer, reducing oil production, and minimizing transepidermal water loss, Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) works to even skin tone, control shine, and reinforce the skin barrier.

Antioxidant Complex

A blend of antioxidants that helps guard skin against environmental damage and discoloration, while supporting its natural brightness and tone.

Hydroquinone

Fades the dark spots you have now and helps keep new ones from forming. Hydroquinone slows melanin production to gradually even out skin tone. One of the most clinically studied prescription ingredients for hyperpigmentation.

Ceramide Complex

Lipids that make up approximately 50% of the skin barrier's composition. Replenish the structural integrity of the stratum corneum when prescription actives cause barrier disruption.

Panthenol

A skin-calming vitamin that supports barrier repair and accelerates surface healing. Clinically shown to reduce moisture loss and soothe irritation.

FAQ

If dark spots or discoloration are your main concern without much active acne, HydroFade is the more targeted option. If you’re also dealing with active breakouts alongside redness or dark spots, ClariFade pairs Tretinoin with Azelaic Acid to work on both at once.

Hydroquinone works best, and is best tolerated, in cycles rather than nonstop, year-round use. Prolonged use without breaks and at higher concentrations can cause paradoxical dark spots called ochronosis. Giving your skin a break helps prevent this, reduces irritation, and keeps it responsive over time.

Your physician will consult with you on the exact timing based on how your skin responds.

Most patients notice gradual fading over 8 to 12 weeks within a treatment cycle. Hyperpigmentation responds slowly since it involves fading existing pigment. Daily SPF is essential. Unprotected sun exposure can worsen dark spots.

Hydroquinone isn’t recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Tell your physician at intake, and they’ll help you find a safer option for your skin in the meantime.

Prescription-strength Hydroquinone is generally well tolerated when used in cycles as directed, though irritation or temporary redness is possible. Continuous use beyond the recommended cycle has been linked to a rare skin-darkening condition called ochronosis. Daily SPF is also essential, since sun exposure can undo your progress and make dark spots worse.
