White Therapy: Kojic acid, the natural lightening active ingredient for an even complexion

Dark spots, acne scars, hyperpigmentation... These marks that settle on the skin can become real complexes. At White Therapy , we believe that every skin deserves to radiate with an even glow. Our secret to a visibly clearer and brighter complexion? Kojic acid , a naturally derived active ingredient with recognized lightening properties.

What is kojic acid?

Kojic acid is a natural active ingredient derived from the fermentation of certain fungi, such as those used to produce sake. Highly prized in Asia for its effects on skin lightening, it is known to inhibit the action of tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. The result: fewer dark spots and a more even complexion, without altering the skin's natural tone.

How does kojic acid work on the skin?

The action of kojic acid is multiple:

-It slows down the overproduction of melanin, responsible for the appearance of pigment spots.

-It reduces existing spots and prevents the appearance of new ones.

-It evens out the complexion and revives the skin's natural radiance.

-It also has antioxidant properties, which protect the skin from oxidative stress and premature aging.

Who is kojic acid for?

Kojic acid is ideal for:

-Skin with pigment spots (sun, age, acne scars).

-Dull skin or skin prone to hyperpigmentation.

-Matte or dark skin tones, often more prone to pigmentation irregularities.

People wishing to lighten their complexion while respecting their natural color.
