WHAT DOES IT DO

Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad is a dual-action brightening + barrier-repair treatment for hyperpigmentation and sensitive skin. 

Fades Stubborn Dark Spots
→ TXA (tranexamic acid) blocks plasmin-induced melanin activation – clinically proven to fade PIH* 63% faster than niacinamide alone.

Prevents Recurring Pigmentation
→ Niacinamide 5% inhibits melanosome transfer → stops new dark spots from forming.

Gentle Exfoliation
→ PHA (gluconolactone) dissolves dead cells clogged with pigment → reveals brighter skin.

Soothes Inflammation
→ Heartleaf extract calms post-acne/post-laser redness → prevents PIH before it starts.

Strengthens Barrier
→ Ceramides repair lipid matrix → reduces vulnerability to UV/pollution pigmentation.

WHY YOU SHOULD USE

• 63% ↓ Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation in 4 weeks (vs. 41% for 5% niacinamide alone)*
  
• 78% less new dark spots with consistent use (sun damage study)
  
• 0% rebound hyperpigmentation post-treatment (6-month follow-up)
  
• 49% smoother texture (PHA exfoliation benefit)
