Are tranexamic Acid and phytoflORAL® safe?
Both tranexamic Acid and phytoflORAL® are supported by clinical research. When taken as directed and in the right doses, they are generally safe for healthy adults. Medical consultation, however, is recommended, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
How does this combination help with pigmentation?
Tranexamic acid works by helping reduce excess melanin production, which can lighten melasma and other pigmentation issues. PhytoflORAL® matches this by protecting skin from UV-induced damage and oxidative stress, which is beneficial in preventing new spots from forming.
How long does it take to see results?
Most patients start noticing improvements in skin brightness within 8–12 weeks of consistent use. For melasma, clinical results often show improvement after about 3 to 6 months.
Can I take this supplement if I’m already using topical treatments?
Yes, oral supplements can complement topical treatments. Just make sure to consult your doctor to avoid the risk of interactions or over-treatment.
Should I still wear sunscreen while taking this supplement?
Absolutely. While PhytoflORAL® provides natural UV protection, it is not a substitute for sunscreen. Regular use of broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential, even on cloudy days.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are uncommon but may include mild gastrointestinal discomfort or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if you experience any adverse effects.
Who should avoid tranexamic acid?
Those with a history of blood clotting disorders or stroke, or women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid tranexamic acid unless advised by a healthcare provider. Always consult your doctor before starting any new supplement or treatment.
