Dark Spot Treatments: Differin Dark Spot, Faded by Topicals, Versed | Doctorly Reviews

[@sahilSingh-xk9um]

I’ve had all kinds of skin issues, from dryness to redness, but after trying the subliminal affirmations on borlest, my skin has become so much healthier and balanced. I’m really impressed!

[@shivanibohra31]

I have extremely dry and sensitive skin. Spending a lot of time on my laptop and experiencing sleepless nights due to work often cause me dark circles under my eyes and dark spots from too much sunlight. My skin is easily affected by the sun since it's so delicate. It's difficult for me to find the correct skincare stuff. A friend suggested liiitlextra rice berry face serum and sunscreen to me. I chose to give them a try, and they really impressed me. I never know how they would work, but actually they did nice for my skin. I'm amazed at how my face glows now and how smooth my skin tone is. They have Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Black rice water, which helped reduce my dark spots, fix my skin tone, and protect it from aging and sun damage. It also keeps my skin moisturized and calm. I've learned something important: if you want good skin, you need to moisturize it regularly.

[@jayaprasad2196]

When my work keeps me up all night, this Riceberry Vitamin C serum is my go-to solution. It works to mask the effects of tiredness, lessening dark spots and giving my skin a much-needed glowing boost. This way, I can approach the day with self-confidence.

I’m not sure if you read these comments (especially on older posts) but first, thank you for your professional opinions and knowledge! I’ve recently started using Faded and due to having niacinamide in many other products I use daily, I’ve tried to find the percentage and reach out to the company. So far, no response. Their website FAQs do not disclose due to proprietary information of their formula. I am no stranger to this concept however when dealing with OTC products, it’s not uncommon to share some active ingredient percentages and it’s becoming the industry standard for skin care products. I was interested in this product due to your review, the ingredient list, and also seeing it founded by a pediatric dermatologist. Is there any other way for us to get clarification on some of the ingredient percentages of this product? Perhaps you may be aware of independent studies or other sources that guide consumers. If you read this far, thank you so much for your time.

Love you both! Enjoy your content a lot. Very informative. So, I have found dark spots on my jawline a few months back that were very obvious. Went to the dermatologist to find it was acid keratosis, from sun exposure for years. They treated the spots with cryotherapy. It is effective but the healing time is lengthy. Up to a month. I am now taking care of my skin better with retinoids and moisturizer at night, Vichy, moisturizer and sunscreen during the day. Getting older stinks! I just had a treatment the other day at the doctor and it is still sore as it dries my skin but I do see the treatment is effective. But while it is effective, it is unsightly while it is healing. I cover them lightly with some concealer but only when I go out and take off immediately when I get home. Any other suggestions would be helpful. Thank you both for your info!

Faded is great, along with retinoids like Tretinoin and prescription azelaic acid. It's not what most people want to hear, but some dark marks can take YEARS to fade and if you're prone to hyperpigmentation including PIE/PIH and melasma, you need an entire routine that is geared towards treating that consistently and continuously over years. Wearing sunscreen not only when outside but also inside is also key.

Invest in a real treatment as in a peel with a great esthetician. There’s nothing at Sephora to truly clear scars because you would need a prescription. They probably got paid by Sephora or the brand to promote. I don’t even think it has more than 2% Tranexamic acid and that’s enough. Even with 3% Tranexamic acid you would need to complement that with oral Tranexamic acid of about 500 mg a day.

In my fifties I was prescribed some creams from the dermatologist but it worked and it didn’t. My skin became extremely sensitive, sometimes itchy, couldn’t go out in the sun etc. I stopped using any cream because out of the blue I got eczema on my eyelids so I couldn’t use anything. My face was irritated a lot so I only used Cera Ve from the drugstore, face & eyelids. I’m in my sixties now and recently I noticed that the pigmentation is hardly noticeable, some areas I would say it’s gone and where it was raised it’s flat. I STRONGLY BELIEVE ITS BECAUSE I eliminated carbs from my diet. Since I was young my diet was 100% carbs, now I would say it’s 20% maybe less some weeks. I cut out carbs for health reasons and this helped my skin. I’m 100% sure about this for myself. 👍❤️🥳

[@ericarodriguez6806]

Thanks for that info. I also have a high carb diet, and my skin looks like trash.

[@MsJeliciap]

I did keto for a month and noticed my skin appeared brighter and lighter. Diet is definitely a big part of how our skin looks.

[@bigbaby293000]

they not lying ... I had really dark spots I'm still using some but my spots are becoming lighter . I'm stillworking toward removing all the spots I pray I went to two dermatologist they told me it was nothing they could do to help me

Faded completely clogged my skin and now I am battling closed comodones! It’s way overpriced too. I’m so upset 😔

[@sarahdee374]

At y'alls recommendation I've (68 year old female) been using Olay Overnight (purple pkg, unscented & no SPF) Retinol and Peptides for about 6 months now. My two hyperpigment spots, one on each upper cheek, have faded quite a lot. I also dab on a high quality mineral SPF when I'll be outside. I'll continue this indefinately. and fun fact, I emailed Olay and they informed me that the only ingredients that are not vegan, ie: not cruelty sourced, are their fragrance elements. This is a biggie for me.

I have old ancestors spots that are white due to melasma. I started using OTC Porcelana Night Time Cream, it says it has 2% Hydroquinone. I also use Niacinimide to help with the texture from the ance scarring. Thanks for all the info! I'm desperately trying to fix the melasma.

[@serachung1677]

I thought melasma and dark spots were different… and was told that hydroquinone (like the studies talked about in this video) was effective against melasma… but not dark spots? The dermatologist who told this to me could be wrong so can someone clarify for me? I’d love to get a hold of anything that would clear my dark spots and if it’s hydroquinone, I do have that product and would like to use it

[@amyelr]

I've been using Faded for 7 weeks without seeing results, but I know this takes time so I'm going to keep it up for a couple more months (if it doesn't work I'm getting hydroquinone). The good thing for me is I've used it daily since the get go and have had no irritation at all. 👍

@@TiffyAlwaysBlissy yeah I understand your frustration. Sucks investing your hard earned money, energy and time on a product and using it for many months on end just to net you zero results at the end. There’s no refund on all that time, money and energy you’ve wasted 💀

[@megancunningham9471]

I am on my second tube of religious daily use of Faded (I never experienced any irritation and I use it during the day because I use tret at night.) It really doesn’t seem to have done anything for my melasma. In fact, I feel like I am seeing more mottled dark spots on my cheeks than I did before… if I don’t see any progress after this second tube, I am dumping it.

[@jessicafay7905]

Hydroquinone is highly oily and when I used it on my acne prone skin, it clogged pores and resulted in more bumps on my face over time. I had to stop using it altogether.

Have not tried Differin Dark Spot, but the original Differin acne gel works great for me for dark spots

Faded is awesome. It doesn’t smell very nice but only for a few minutes and it does the job. I just started using the vitamin C from Timeless in the morning and it seems to work well with using the Faded at night.
