WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO RECOMMEND USAGE OF THE ADVANCED BRIGHTENING KIT AND PHYTOQUINONE FADER?Updated 6 months ago

1. If you have someone who is using the Advanced Brightening Kit with Hydroquinone, they will not usually want to recommend using during the day (some clinicians I have seen prescribe it twice daily, but I wouldn’t). If they are using Hydroquinone, they would stick with the pads at night and can use PhytoQuinone Fader in the morning to continue to maintain results and use Kojic for pigmentation.  

2. There is also a seasonal aspect. During the winter months where they are not out in direct sunlight as much and they are not combatting active bouts of pigmentation, they could use PhytoQuinone Fader to help maintain and provide a little bit of hydration. During the warmer months when people are more actively outside, they would revert back to the Advanced Brightening Kit. I am a firm believer in keeping the skin guessing, so keep alternating and changing things up to get the best results.  

3. You can also use both together! I would use the pads first and then apply PhytoQuinone Fader, followed by Radiant C/VitaCE in the morning for the trifecta, or at night use a Retinoid instead of a Vitamin C to help regulate melanin and skin tone as well.  This would work especially well with those who have stubborn pigmentation. There are different ways to go about treating hyperpigmentation and it will ultimately depend on the climate, patient preference, and how severe their pigmentation is.
