Tranexamic Acid
Tranexamic acid
Also known as TXA
Comedogenic rating 0/5
A lysine analogue used orally for heavy bleeding and, topically, for stubborn pigmentation.
Why it matters
One of the more credible options for melasma-prone skin when used consistently.
Cautions
Topical use is generally well tolerated. Oral TXA is a drug, not a serum — do not confuse the two.
