REMEDY for Dark Spots is now here: remedyskin.com/products/dark-spots I can't wait to hear everyone's feedback and see your results! This has been my dream, thank you all so much for giving me the platform to be able to launch this
Yah I’d love to see EU Alternatives.. so often products you show it’s hard to find a similar product here in Denmark. Even chemical sunscreen are hard to come by.. release your product worldwide
Just ordered mine! Can’t wait to see at work. I only have a couple of small dark spots even though I’m 62. I’ve always tried to take care of my skin. Best of luck with your new products.❤
@@horrorhighlights9746 when you're taking a break from hydroquinone you should also refrain from using alpha arbutin lest you suffer the negative consequences. The whole point is to avoid said consequences and it'd defy the purpose of taking a break if you continue using AA.
That's a big routine with too many products. You can remove 1-3 in your morning routine with just Kojic Acid soap by Skinlyte. It is a cleanser, has vitamin C and Kojic Acid which is a dark spot remover that can be used also as a mask or serum. Then apply the sunscreen. 2 step process. At night, you can cleanse again with the Kojic Acid soap and then apply again as a night time leave in serum overnight. Just 1 step.
One thing that worked for my skin and made it glow was following a good skincare routine. I keep my skin hydrated by staying well hydrated every day. I wash my face twice a day, both morning and night. I use the very gentle riceberry face wash only. After washing, I apply rice berry vitamin c face serum by littleexttra. When I go outside, I always apply sunscreen. Just following these things made a big difference in just 3 months. I hope this can help someone else who is looking to improve their skin texture.
Applying riceberry vitamin c face serum and sunscreen into my routine has changed my skincare routine. It made my skin smooth and radiant in no time. The serum stands out as an excellent choice due to its long-lasting advantages, quick absorption, and light aroma. I strongly recommend this serum.
This video is a gem! So much useful information. I normally avoid promoting things, but I have to share the subliminal affirmations for acne on Borlest with you. They can truly heal your skin. All the best to everyone.
This was the BEST DARK SPOT VIDEO EVER! You included darker skin tones like me! I didn’t know about the alpha Arbutin Hydroquinone connection. I know how to put all my products together now. Thank you!
Instead of Arbutin, go for Kojic Acid which is more popular. Go for natural Skinlyte brand. Valitic brand has synthetic dyes and fragrance that may hide Phthalates. It will cause inflammation and irritation that leads to more hyperpigmentation. Go for an all natural one by Skinlyte. You can even use it as a leave in mask or a spot treatment without rinsing off. Do that only if the ingredients of the soap is all natural.
I just want to thank you two gentlemen. My skin has cleared up and I don’t have to spend money on expensive skin products. 😊I been following you guys since 2022.
@@JamesRobert_12 for the cleanser and lotion I used La Roche-Posay brand, I also used toner and done Microneedling and derma roller. Plus 2 xs a week red light LED mask.
I hope you'll consider doing a detailed video covering the in-office procedures you recommend for hyperpigmentation. I'd like to be able to make an informed decision before I go that route, and I can then discuss it with my dermatologist. Do we look for the dermatologist first, or a specific procedure? There are so many options now, and I find it overwhelming!
Thanks for the video, I subscribed immediately after watching! 😊 I’m 52, fair skinned with melasma and have been on oral Tranexamic Acid for 2 weeks - already seeing results! Previously I’d been on hydroquinone 4%, azelaic acid 20%, arbutase 6% and otc Skinceuticals Vit C (and of course tinted sunscreen). My melasma lightened significantly to the extent I was comfortable without foundation 🎉 but after a year of those prescription topicals which were compounded with steroids, my skin was thinning. With oral TA, my skin can now rest a little :) Look forward to trying your new product!
At your age I recommend peptide treatments. Skinlyte has a soap that is loaded not only with collagen but also keratin peptides. It is called Hair & Whole Body Bar. It is fast absorbed because it has an enhanced binding enhancement technology which produces a water molecule that hydrates skin and hair naturally. It repairs, rebuilds and strengthens hair and skin. I got it at Amazon and I am impressed with new benefits I discover every time I use it. I noticed many improvements in my hair, skin and nails. What I like best about it is that it's all natural and without harmful chemicals such as synthetic dyes, fragrance, SLS or preservatives.
Black guy here with pecan brown skin: tinted anything with zinc oxide is a non-starter. I've been using sunscreen daily for 12 years and I've only missed about 5 days during this time--each of them I've been indoors the entire day. I have NEVER found a tinted sunscreen that doesn't make me look like a complete freak. I don't care how "invisible" it's supposed to be. Apparently "invisible" is only or lighter skin tones. My skin will reveal that mess with no delay. I use SPF30 or higher with antioxidants, but will never use tinted.
Bru's the struggle is real. The tinted mineral sunscreen from All Good (sold at Target and online) works. It's very drying so I have to use a moisturizer first. Then I apply a powder.
I don't see the need to block visible light with the tint. Visible red and IR light is good for dark spots. That's why red light therapy is so popular.
I have very dark skin and I use UNTINTED because the colors are typically horrible on dark skin. I loved the Equate clear sunscreen...I think it was SPF 50 in a big brown tube. I also love Mary Kay's daytime defender SPF 30 and the newly released sunscreen too. I have a relative who loves Black Girl Sunscreen. We also like clear sunscreen SPF 50 that's formulated for babies. I hope this helps someone.
" I have been on a journey to battle hyperpigmentation .. I can tell you that all you are saying is exactly right ... After 2 years of regular use of Renin A , c and the other good stuff, my skin is clear and additionally the use of Microneedling has absolutely made a huge difference to the pigments and pores ..and it took only 2 treatments to see a big result... I just had my 4th ( in a 1.5 year period ) and I am super happy with it all. Thank you for your very clear and entertaining posts, they are super super helpful.
I’m hoping that you keep folks with ultra sensitive skin in mind. I suffer with Rosacea. And sensitive skin. EVERYTHING irritates my skin. This leaving me with hyperpigmentation. I hope you keep us folks in mind with your products.
Same - can anyone with melasma and rosacea weigh in on if this would be a good thing to use? My skin is pretty reactive - even the most gentle Vitamin C serums cause some irritation for me. 😖
Hi does Faded topicals cream works for you? What skin type are you? Do you know if this cream will be suitable for medium or VI skin type? I was thinking about hydroquinone to treat my post inflammatory hypopigmentation on my upper arm (due to skin injury from lasers) but some ppl said it could worsen the pigmentation for medium-dark skinned people
@@Anne7_ hydroquinone would definitely be quicker but I like faded because it also has a ton of other actives that are really good for brightening the skin.
I have dark skin and have struggled with dark spots of all kinds my whole life. I AM just now wanting to make a change to improve their appearance. The dark spots occur all over my body. I went to a dermatologist who told me there was nothing I could do for it. And then just abruptly ended the appointment. 🙄 I knew she was wrong the second she said that. So grateful for your channel!!!! Seriously!
Omg I literally had this happen to me too. I went to a derm for my face hyperpigmentation and he told me he couldn’t do anything for me and that I’ll basically have to learn to comauflage it with a skin therapist help😢
These dermatologists must be British or have a British qualification. “Nothing you can do about it” is a common term these chaps use from what I hear. Useless overrated Brits.
I JUST went to a derm as well and got nothing from it!! I was so mad! Idk if your doctor was melanated but mine wasn’t and it made me feel like people who are not won’t understand people with melanated skin skin issues because some things show up differently for us than others.
This is excellent!!! I've been watching another RUclipsr that mostly reviews different brands of products, and so, it's hard to put it so together. Thank you. You will be my go-to source for skin care!

@@revenge217 Hi, thank you for the response. Another question, is the skin condition you’re trying to fix more on the Melasma side, so larger patch(es) of dark spot(s) or another type of hyperpigmention? Also, if i use those 3 products, would it be realistic for me to reduce hyperpigmentation within 1-2 months?
Best doctors on RUclips I already signed up on Skinpedia and hope to get something from the shop soon .thank you so much from a person who started experiencing dark spots I was going crazy especially with my skin tone so dark spots are not pretty ...But you two have made my life complete with your videos
Thank you doctors for listening to us. Haven't watched it yet but it's automatic save so I can refer to it over and over again. You have saved me so much money by product recommendations. I used to buy expensive creams and they never worked 😢 Now my skin has never looked better ❤
Can we get products that are 100% cruelty-free? I don’t feel comfortable investing in products that I know experiment on Beagles and other voiceless animals for the sake of “beauty”.
Omg @Doctorly I can’t wait to try this!!! I Just ordered. I am African-American and have really bad melasma around my upper lip….it’s so embarrassing and a really huge blow to my self esteem. I have tried a couple of the companies out there like Cureology and Musely, but the melasma returns with a vengeance!!!! I am so sad at times about it, and was looking around for reliable treatments and I happened upon your video about the stages of treatment and your new product at a time when I was losing hope. I love your videos and pray this works for my skin!
For me, Ordinary's Niacidnamide and Zinc has changed my life!! I use it morning and night and it not only helped with my pigmentation but smoothed out my skin! I love it!!

I often wonder what you both are like when the camera is not active. I think you guys always make jokes and then have to try really hard not to burst out laughing. Together you radiate a lot of positive energy. Please keep it up!
this channel and my dermatologist have changed my skin. i’m glad to have a perfect routine before the age of 30. My skin has changed over the years since following you guys. as i started watching yall when i was early 20s and i just turned 27.
You guys' beard cut this time is like TOP. Just awesome, Especially dr. Maxfield's. It's just soo well suited to your face shape. One of the best cut i have seen
This is so complicated … not sure if it’s just me but after hearing so many ingredient and names and options I feel lost, this is probably why I don’t have a routine for dark spots. Hope you can make a simpler one in the future
@ choicetoronto I'd pick one ingredient from list @ 5:21, look it up on Google, then on RUclips. Listen to more than one influencer (they all have different styles - for instance MAD ABOUT SKIN has best explanation of Vitamin C *derivatives*) Good luck
Go to their website! When you click to download the PDF, on the page there's a basic routine you can follow that's simple. There's no extra details on product recommendations, so it a good summary that you can take bullet point by bullet point
@@Doctorly Good morning 😃 I have a lot of ingredients that I use is there a way I could forward them and you can show me what’s double dipping or not necessary and perhaps even try your products?
Thank you for mentioning that Alpha Arbutin produces Hydroquinone and can therefore cause the excess melanin darkening that you mentioned in your video a couple of times. That is so good to know because I use hydroquinone and was also interested in using alpha arbutin!
I have embraced the power of the Pyramid.I am here to tell you all…it works. I had really dark mylasma on my lower cheeks and following these rules has almost wiped it out. Tinted spf 50 sunscreen in the day . Tretinoin .50 and MaeLove Fade away at night. I rest that routine on Sunday and let my skin barrier get “slugged” 😂 I use an SA WASH 2 times a week in the mornings leave on for 3 minutes then rinse. I am 57 and now have “glass” skin. I will also tell you I was diagnosed with PsA. I take prescription medicine for that as well that I believe has help my inflammation and rosacea. My dermatologist tells all his student docs I am his favorite patient because I have lots of questions and LISTEN to all his medical advise which in turn gets me the results I wanted. I am also very realistic about my expectations… ❤❤❤
I’m happy to say that I was following your pyramid long before because of information I got from you two in other videos. You made it easy to put the puzzle together.
Thank you! I suffer from Melasma & PIH. Been using these products but it’s a bit overwhelming. Just had laser treatment and just started your Dark spot treatment. Very excited to see results.
So glad you have covered this topic. I'm in Ireland and I start to use SPF factor 50 from March until October. I love this channel! Great, relevant advice always given honestly! :)

I can’t wait for your product to be out! I’m excited about this! This video is more like God’s way of helping me solve my issues with hyperpigmentation and dark spots! To me I think the hardest skin concern to address is dark spots.
Try Australian Gold tinted mineral sunscreen. Also Elta MD tinted mineral sunscreen which is available in several shaded. I am very fair so have had to try a few before I found one that suits me in addition to not being shiny, which I can't stand. I use matte products when I can find them. There are several others I can't remember offhand but google tinted sunscreen and you'll find several others..
My dermatologist put me on hydroquinone for 5 years straight. Can you believe that? It wasn't until I happened to come across an article about only using it for 3 months at a time that I weaned myself off it. Luckily I didn't have any rebound pigmentation. But I won't ever see the derm ever again.
This was THE CLEAREST most straight forward and thorough video on melasma etc. I have ever watched. Thank you so much!! And you didn't make it feel hard or hard to treat.
In the morning I cleanse with Cetaphil gentle cleanser, La Roche Posay C Serum, Avene B3 renewal firming cream, La Roche Posay tinted SPF 50, Roc Hydrate and plump eye cream. Night time I cleanse with Cetaphil, La Roche Posay R Anti aging eye cream, Tretinoin and Cerave Night cream. I’m 47 been on Tretinoin since October for age spots. It has darkened them and brought more to the surface hopefully it will fade in time.
I tried every product under the sun (pun intended) to fade my hyper pigmentation that formed during pregnancy. Nothing worked until I started doing advanced IPL treatments. I am not sure if you cover these treatments on here but I def think they're amazing and also interesting! Regular IPL improved my skin in general but advanced zapped my pigment, it rose to the surface and flaked away and it's like I have nothing there anymore. I get it done twice a year because as mine seems to be hormonal is does come back. I could get away with once a year, it would just be pretty visible by the year end. It is really shocking through just how well it works, and I was spending loads of products and not seeing anything near as dramatic after years of using them. For me it was worth the $$. I am canadian and it was 300$ a treatment and needed 3 in total, spanned out between 4-6 weeks each. I was able to do mine during a promotion and get 50% off each treatment, so 150$ cad.

I just wanna make sure when you say tinted. I don’t think Dr. Maxwell is dark because I’m African-American. So when you say tinted, are you guys talking about more darker people or just white people who have darker skin. because some of those tinted moisturizer, I like putting a flower in my face.
I remember when I discovered your channel. Many people thought you guys were in a relationship 😂 Anyway, big fan! Thanks for your videos. I use many of your recommendations :)

So excited for your product!!! Hoping it will be accessible to Canadians as well. Love you two!
Best doctors on RUclips I already signed up on Skinpedia and hope to get something from the shop soon .thank you so much from a person who started experiencing dark spots I was going crazy especially with my skin tone so dark spots are not pretty ...But you two have made my life complete with your videos
Thank you doctors for listening to us. Haven't watched it yet but it's automatic save so I can refer to it over and over again. You have saved me so much money by product recommendations. I used to buy expensive creams and they never worked 😢 Now my skin has never looked better ❤
My face is a roadmap, I've got every type of dark spot. Ordered Remedy, will let you know if it works.
Great video! Very enlightening. I'm African American with hyperpigmentaion. This helps me more than you know. Thanks!
Check Dr V
Can we get products that are 100% cruelty-free? I don’t feel comfortable investing in products that I know experiment on Beagles and other voiceless animals for the sake of “beauty”.
I totally agree since I am vegan
Omg @Doctorly I can’t wait to try this!!! I Just ordered. I am African-American and have really bad melasma around my upper lip….it’s so embarrassing and a really huge blow to my self esteem. I have tried a couple of the companies out there like Cureology and Musely, but the melasma returns with a vengeance!!!! I am so sad at times about it, and was looking around for reliable treatments and I happened upon your video about the stages of treatment and your new product at a time when I was losing hope. I love your videos and pray this works for my skin!
Which cream r u using for melasma
Ramadan mubarak Dr Shah ❤
Ramadan mubarak!!!
Ramadan Kareem🪷
For me, Ordinary's Niacidnamide and Zinc has changed my life!! I use it morning and night and it not only helped with my pigmentation but smoothed out my skin! I love it!!

I often wonder what you both are like when the camera is not active. I think you guys always make jokes and then have to try really hard not to burst out laughing. Together you radiate a lot of positive energy. Please keep it up!
this channel and my dermatologist have changed my skin. i’m glad to have a perfect routine before the age of 30. My skin has changed over the years since following you guys. as i started watching yall when i was early 20s and i just turned 27.
You guys' beard cut this time is like TOP. Just awesome, Especially dr. Maxfield's. It's just soo well suited to your face shape. One of the best cut i have seen
This is so complicated … not sure if it’s just me but after hearing so many ingredient and names and options I feel lost, this is probably why I don’t have a routine for dark spots. Hope you can make a simpler one in the future
@ choicetoronto
I'd pick one ingredient from list @ 5:21, look it up on Google, then on RUclips. Listen to more than one influencer (they all have different styles - for instance MAD ABOUT SKIN has best explanation of Vitamin C *derivatives*)
Good luck
Musely worked for me. It's pricey but it works. It's prescription online
I think it’s just you…
Go to their website! When you click to download the PDF, on the page there's a basic routine you can follow that's simple. There's no extra details on product recommendations, so it a good summary that you can take bullet point by bullet point
@toyinaina6747 No.
I love your videos! I hope Remedy Skin launches a face and body hyperpigmentation product!
As an ED nurse, imagine my surprise when you mentioned TXA! I've definitely used this but had no Idea that pigmentation was an off label use.
so incredibly excited for this dark spot product. brands that focus on hyperpigmentation have a special place in my heart!!!
Castor oil... Organic cold pressed Castor oil. Best for dark spots, wrinkles, inflammation and constipation
@@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlawwhere you get it from
U guys are the cutest !! Love how you explain everything 😍 I will be purchasing Remedy !! Thank you 👨🏻⚕️👨🏻⚕️❤
So nice to see you two, missed you guys.

Same I missed my favourite Dermatologists including mine from Canada 🇨🇦 Dr. Cowger Hi Dr. Shah and Dr. Maxfield 🤗🩷👐🏼🧴👋 @Doctorly
@@Doctorly Good morning 😃
I have a lot of ingredients that I use is there a way I could forward them and you can show me what’s double dipping or not necessary and perhaps even try your products?

Copyright is a must Doc!
Fastest shopping experience !! It went straight to my cart then check out!!! I hope it works for me! Wish me luck!!!
So excited for Remedy!!! Pls pls make it available in France 🇫🇷
But France already had the best products ever there are so many of them already, for me there is no better than the French products 😊
@@tatjanasanjic8888 yes i agree with you, but not when it comes to retinoids/retinol… so few…
Korean@@tatjanasanjic8888
Thank you for mentioning that Alpha Arbutin produces Hydroquinone and can therefore cause the excess melanin darkening that you mentioned in your video a couple of times. That is so good to know because I use hydroquinone and was also interested in using alpha arbutin!
Great topic to cover. Thank you! This is the subject of a thesis I'm working on, specifically including the psychosocial aspect!
Wow Astute..good luck!
Just placed my order 😊I'm so excited.. for this .. can't wait to see my results..
I have embraced the power of the Pyramid.I am here to tell you all…it works. I had really dark mylasma on my lower cheeks and following these rules has almost wiped it out.
Tinted spf 50 sunscreen in the day . Tretinoin .50 and MaeLove Fade away at night. I rest that routine on Sunday and let my skin barrier get “slugged” 😂 I use an SA WASH 2 times a week in the mornings leave on for 3 minutes then rinse. I am 57 and now have “glass” skin. I will also tell you I was diagnosed with PsA. I take prescription medicine for that as well that I believe has help my inflammation and rosacea. My dermatologist tells all his student docs I am his favorite patient because I have lots of questions and LISTEN to all his medical advise which in turn gets me the results I wanted. I am also very realistic about my expectations… ❤❤❤
May I know how long it took for your melasma to fade completely following these?
I’m happy to say that I was following your pyramid long before because of information I got from you two in other videos. You made it easy to put the puzzle together.
You guys have the best way of delivering detailed information in a succinct and interesting way. Love your videos!
This is the best video on RUclips that addresses these concerns!!!!!!!
Well, looks like you just launched! Huge congratulations!!!
Thank you! I suffer from Melasma & PIH. Been using these products but it’s a bit overwhelming. Just had laser treatment and just started your Dark spot treatment. Very excited to see results.
Gracias gracias gracias. I deal with hyperpigmentation. So exited for Remedy🎉
I bought all those products before I watched this video. I am happy that I did right choice.
Loved the pictorial representation through the pyramid! Thanks to Dr. Shah and Dr. Maxfield for this amazing video ❤
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Eucerin Sensitive 50 Sunscreen - it has knocked all the others off my shelf. It is perfection for me.
So glad you have covered this topic. I'm in Ireland and I start to use SPF factor 50 from March until October. I love this channel! Great, relevant advice always given honestly! :)
People of color have different skin care needs. Please cover products, treatments etc for us. Thanks!

Wow! Nicely done. Dr. Shaw, we will be eagerly awaiting the launch of your product line. I have shared your videos with many, many people and all have become fans of yours. You make a great and highly educational team. Thank you for all the great information.
someone tag me when Remedy finally ships internationally !! I trust these men and would buy their skincare even if the international shipping would hurt
Seoul ceuticals is a great Korean brand and they have a kojic acid serum with many other great ingredients
Is there a link you could direct us to?
I am also in Korea but I didn’t find Kojic acid serum.. can you please help me
@@Lovelove-qd9ny

Thank you guys so much for all the information and making it ingestible for the laymen like me ❤️

I'm excited for your dark spot treatment Dr. Shah! Thank you both for this video
I can’t wait for your product to be out! I’m excited about this! This video is more like God’s way of helping me solve my issues with hyperpigmentation and dark spots! To me I think the hardest skin concern to address is dark spots.
I can’t wait to try your products! I wish more companies would make a lighter color of tinted SPF
I agree. Tinted sunscreens are too dark for my fair skin.
Agreed.
Try Australian Gold tinted mineral sunscreen. Also Elta MD tinted mineral sunscreen which is available in several shaded. I am very fair so have had to try a few before I found one that suits me in addition to not being shiny, which I can't stand. I use matte products when I can find them. There are several others I can't remember offhand but google tinted sunscreen and you'll find several others..
There are videos on RUclips of people trying tinted sunscreen which leave them looking like Casper. 😂 Maybe try the ones that didn't work for them.
@@smallpackage8360 I don't think so. It ain't the first comment I read about people whom struggle to find very light shade. The struggles is real !
Wow I can’t wait to see you new product for dark spot I’ve tried a different products for dark spot didn’t work for me
My dermatologist put me on hydroquinone for 5 years straight. Can you believe that? It wasn't until I happened to come across an article about only using it for 3 months at a time that I weaned myself off it. Luckily I didn't have any rebound pigmentation. But I won't ever see the derm ever again.
Just don’t see THAT derm and do more research when finding one. I’ve come across some bad apples too. Good luck!
please make your brand affordable 🤧. thanks for educating me for years.
Thank you so much! 🎉I have waited so long for you to complete this video.
I just got my Remedy😍, also the Elta MD 46PFS.
This was THE CLEAREST most straight forward and thorough video on melasma etc. I have ever watched. Thank you so much!! And you didn't make it feel hard or hard to treat.
Honestly the best source of information I've ever seen on this topic, and I've been searching this for years
Omg can’t wait to try the product!!
In the morning I cleanse with Cetaphil gentle cleanser, La Roche Posay C Serum, Avene B3 renewal firming cream, La Roche Posay tinted SPF 50, Roc Hydrate and plump eye cream. Night time I cleanse with Cetaphil, La Roche Posay R Anti aging eye cream, Tretinoin and Cerave Night cream. I’m 47 been on Tretinoin since October for age spots. It has darkened them and brought more to the surface hopefully it will fade in time.
I tried every product under the sun (pun intended) to fade my hyper pigmentation that formed during pregnancy. Nothing worked until I started doing advanced IPL treatments. I am not sure if you cover these treatments on here but I def think they're amazing and also interesting! Regular IPL improved my skin in general but advanced zapped my pigment, it rose to the surface and flaked away and it's like I have nothing there anymore. I get it done twice a year because as mine seems to be hormonal is does come back. I could get away with once a year, it would just be pretty visible by the year end. It is really shocking through just how well it works, and I was spending loads of products and not seeing anything near as dramatic after years of using them. For me it was worth the $$. I am canadian and it was 300$ a treatment and needed 3 in total, spanned out between 4-6 weeks each. I was able to do mine during a promotion and get 50% off each treatment, so 150$ cad.

Duuuuuude…… thank you for the all in 1. Can’t wait.
Missed ur videos. Glad to see u back
I just wanna make sure when you say tinted. I don’t think Dr. Maxwell is dark because I’m African-American. So when you say tinted, are you guys talking about more darker people or just white people who have darker skin. because some of those tinted moisturizer, I like putting a flower in my face.
Dr. Maxfield is such medical nerds. I love him😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I remember when I discovered your channel. Many people thought you guys were in a relationship 😂
Anyway, big fan! Thanks for your videos. I use many of your recommendations :)
