Benefits of Using Our Hyperpigmentation Products
Vivier’s hyperpigmentation products combine pharmaceutical grade ingredients and advanced delivery systems to help visibly reduce dark spots and discoloration. This multi-action approach works by targeting melanin production, accelerating cell turnover, and preventing future sun damage.
Key benefits of a dedicated hyperpigmentation regimen:
Fades Dark Spots: Actively lightens sun spots, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Evens Skin Tone: Promotes a visibly uniform complexion and reduces generalized discoloration.
Boosts Cell Renewal: Ingredients like Retinol and enzymatic peels accelerate the shedding of pigmented cells.
Restores Radiance: Supports overall skin clarity and health for a healthy, glowing look.
How To Use Vivier's Hyperpigmentation Products (Without Hydroquinone)
For those seeking to correct discoloration while avoiding Hydroquinone, our non-HQ hyperpigmentation treatments focus on powerful brightening antioxidants and gentle cellular turnover (Arbutin, Resorcinol, Vitamin C). This approach is ideal for maintenance, mild pigmentation, and long-term use.
Key steps for your Non-HQ routine:
Morning Treatment: Apply an antioxidant serum (like Radiance Serum or Serum 30) to brighten the skin and provide crucial protection against environmental damage.
Nighttime Renewal: In the evening, apply a Retinol product to accelerate cell turnover and gently fade pigmented cells. Vivier offers a 3-level approach—0.3%, 0.5%, and 1.0%—so you can choose the strength that’s right for your skin.
Consistent Exfoliation: Integrate a gentle exfoliant (like Illuminating Enzymatic Peel™) once or twice a week to slough off superficial dark spots.
Daily Defense: Non-negotiable broad-spectrum SPF must be applied every morning to prevent new pigmentation from forming.
How To Use Vivier's Hyperpigmentation Products (With Hydroquinone)
Hydroquinone (HQ) products, such as Corrector 2 or the Brighten & Restore Program (2% HQ), are recommended for moderate to severe hyperpigmentation, including melasma. Due to the potency of HQ, it must be used strategically and under strict application guidelines.
Important regimen guidelines:
Targeted Application: HQ products should only be applied in a thin layer over the entire face for even brightening.
Duration Limit: Hydroquinone is typically used for a maximum of 6 consecutive months, followed by a break or rotation with a non-HQ brightener to prevent side effects.
Morning Protection: Ensure you use an antioxidant serum in the morning, with or without HQ depending on your skin's sensitivity, followed always by broad-spectrum SPF 30+.
Physician Guidance: Consult with a skincare professional before starting an HQ regimen to ensure proper usage, dosage, and monitoring.
