Frequently Asked Questions
DARK SPOTS
What causes dark spots on mature skin?
Dark spots are caused by localised overproduction of melanin — most commonly triggered by cumulative UV exposure, hormonal changes (especially around perimenopause and menopause), post-inflammatory pigmentation, or skin injury. They become more visible and harder to fade from the mid-40s onwards as cell turnover slows.
What is the most effective ingredient for fading dark spots?
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is clinically proven to inhibit melanin transfer and visibly reduce dark spots over time. Vichy also uses exclusive Melasyl — a breakthrough molecule that works at the pigmentation formation stage to correct and prevent dark spots. Vitamin C complements both by providing antioxidant protection and brightening effects.
How long does it take to fade dark spots?
Dark spot correction requires consistent, daily use over 4–12 weeks to see significant results. Vichy's Pigment Specialist B3 Serum is clinically proven to reduce dark spots by up to 86% in 3 months of consistent use.
Do I need SPF if I'm using dark spot skincare?
Yes — SPF is non-negotiable when targeting dark spots. UV exposure is the primary trigger for melanin overproduction, and without daily SPF, new dark spots will continue to form and existing ones will deepen, counteracting the corrective work of your skincare.
