Powered by cutting-edge technology, and carefully curated Hanbang (Korean Traditional Medicine) ingredients, Mela Defense Serum is a promise of brighter, more even-toned skin.  Think reduced pigment with healing properties. 
The Mela Defense Whitening Serum is a tyrosinase inhibitor which helps suppress overactive melanin. It contains 5% Tranexamic Acid and 3% Niacinamide. 
It's perfect for use before and after chemical peels or for anyone battling hyperpigmentation due to melasma or sundamage
 
Tranexamic Acid helps recover damaged cells and is a very effective tyrosinase inhibitor. Tyrosinase is a key enzyme involved in the synthesis of melanin. By inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, it can help regulate melanin production and address issues related to hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone.
 
Niacinamide has been shown to inhibit the transfer of melanosomes (pigment containing organelles) from melanocytes and keratinocytes, leading to the decrease in melanin production. 
 
Last, but not least, RiFerm-NPG is a trademark formulation containing fermented rice water which has won numerous awards in Korea for one of the best patented formulations using Hangbang Ingredients. It is clinically proven to provide strong antioxidant protection and anti-aging benefits to the skin while repairing the skin's barrier. 
 
RiFerm NPG is formulated with rice ferment and is certified by COSMOS as a organic agro-processed product.  The rice ferment found in the RiFerm NPG is harvested from Yeoju which is loved and protected by the King during the Joseon Dynasty.
