It's perfectly possible to apply our product just after a laser session, when the skin is still inflamed, for several reasons:Formula sterility:
The product is sterile, which considerably reduces the risk of infection. After laser treatment, the skin is more vulnerable to infection due to its compromised surface. A sterile product ensures that no pathogens are introduced, enabling safe application to open wounds or recently treated areas, promoting clean, uncomplicated healing.
Anti-inflammatory properties of tranexamic acid: Tranexamic acid exhibits anti-inflammatory properties by acting on the vascular and pigment pathways, helping to reduce inflammation and redness immediately after laser treatment. Unlike other depigmenting agents, which often target only the pigment pathway (tyrosinase), it also helps reduce the risk of HPI.
Niacinamide properties: Niacinamide acts effectively as a potent inhibitor of pro-inflammatory cytokines, helping to reduce inflammation. It also has significant depigmenting properties thanks to its inhibitory action on tyrosinase. This dual action enables significant synergies with TXA, reinforcing both the treatment of the pigmentary pathway and the anti-inflammatory effect on the vascular/plasminogenic pathway.
Post-laser application recommendations: We recommend applying our product topically (without microneedling) just after a laser session (or any other procedure at risk of IPH: laser, LED, injection, peel...). The combination of 5% TXA and 10% NIA amplifies results on spot treatment (if the laser is intended to treat spots) and limits the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
