I love the minimalist serum! It's so gentle and can be easily paired with tretinoin and it's so affordably priced (costs less than $6 in sales). You should try out more minimalist products, especially the vitamin c serums (there are two), alpha arbutin serum and the light fluid sunscreen .

I have three big sunspots that I have worked with the last four years. I have gotten to the point where I throw everything at them and religiously use my sunscreen. I am satisfied when I’m able to suppress them significantly. They never completely go away. Red light helps as well. I am content with a significant fading and skin brightening. I had to adjust my expectations.

5% tranexamic gel really visibly reduced my facial birthmark I’ve had since I was a child. This has been the biggest fastest improvement I’ve seen of all the whitening serums/actives I’ve tried. I started off with red light therapy, improved a little, then differin nightly also improved more. I use all 3 now and hopefully soon I won’t need to slap on thick layer of concealer anymore.

I was put on tranexamic acid (pill form) for rosacea briefly. It was at the tail end of my treatment plan, my rosacea (demodex) was already very well under control. I decided to come off it because I didn't like the effects it had on my period. I wasn't on it long enough to see any effects on the redness. The theory was it might reduce the remaining redness AFTER my demodectic rosacea was put into full remission. Ultimately, I just stuck to Metronidazole cream for another couple years. Now, 6 years after starting my rosacea treatment, my redness is VERY minimal and I haven't had a flare in years (I don't have demodex anymore though). So it ended up not being a big part of my treatment, but we gave it a shot anyway.

In the UK it’s £24 (I don’t think there’s a great difference in the exchange rate to dollars - don’t know about elsewhere). I’m not sure where it’s based. I have rosacea and some hyperpigmentation. I don’t know how well it’s working, yet. But I’ve had no issues with it.

Thank you Dr Dray! I am using tranexamic acid as it is Rx'd to me. Knowing that there are some benefits like barrier function and less redness. Which for me I noticed because my skin is very reactive so it's always red. Not so since I started using 5% tranexamic acid. My skin is so much better. Thank you for making this video it cleared up so much that I didn't understand or needed to know.

Dr. Dray since it works on blood vessels can we assume tranexamic acid could also improve rosacea (specifically redness/dilated vessels)?
