Discover the Power of Tranexamic Acid in SQT’s Revitalising Kit
Brighten, Calm & Revive with SQT Bio-Microneedling’s Revitalising Kit
Are your clients seeking brighter, calmer, and more even-toned skin? The SQT Bio-Microneedling Revitalising Kit has been expertly formulated to meet these demands and at the heart of it lies a powerhouse ingredient: Tranexamic Acid.
A Unique Delivery System
The Revitalising Kit pairs Tranexamic Acid with our Bio-Microneedling delivery method, ensuring deeper penetration without trauma. Unlike traditional microneedling, SQT uses freshwater sponge-derived needles to naturally stimulate dermal renewal, with zero downtime and powerful results.
Ideal for:
Melasma & hyperpigmentation
Post-inflammatory erythema
Dull, tired skin
Uneven tone and texture
Why Tranexamic Acid?
Originally used in medicine to reduce bleeding, Tranexamic Acid has rapidly become a gold-standard ingredient in aesthetic dermatology, especially for treating pigmentation, inflammation, and post-acne discoloration.
What Makes Tranexamic Acid a Game Changer?
ü Potent Brightening Effect: Helps reduce melanin synthesis by inhibiting the plasminogen activation pathway, resulting in visibly more even skin tone.
ü Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Calms redness and irritation, making it ideal post-microneedling.
ü Supports Barrier Repair: Enhances skin resilience, reducing recurrence of pigmentation and sensitivity.
ü Safe for All Skin Types: Gentle yet effective, even for clients prone to PIH or with sensitive skin.
How Tranexamic Acid Reduces Melanin Synthesis:
Tranexamic acid works by disrupting the melanin production pathway at a key trigger point, making it a highly effective treatment for hyperpigmentation, melasma, and PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation).
Here’s how it works:
1. Inhibits Plasmin Activity
Tranexamic acid is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine. It inhibits the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin (an enzyme involved in inflammation and vascular responses) by blocking the activation pathway.
2. Reduces Inflammation-Induced Pigment Production
Plasmin indirectly stimulates melanocyte activity through inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins and arachidonic acid. These messengers promote tyrosinase activity, the enzyme that drives melanin synthesis.
By reducing plasmin, tranexamic acid helps to:
Suppress tyrosinase activation
Decrease melanocyte overactivity
Lower melanin synthesis in response to UV light, trauma, or inflammation
3. Stabilizes the Skin Barrier
It also helps to reinforce the skin's protective barrier, reducing the chances of pigment-triggering stimuli like irritation and inflammation from penetrating the skin.
Point of Difference:
SQT doesn’t just treat symptoms, it works deep within the dermis to retrain and revitalise skin function from the inside out. The inclusion of pharmaceutical-grade Tranexamic Acid, combined with natural spicules, offers a multi-targeted, regenerative treatment your clients will see and feel.
