Calecim® Professional Pigment Solution

THE HYDROQUINONE-FREE SERUM FOR DARK SPOTS AND UNEVEN TONE

Calecim® Professional Pigment Solution is CALECIM's tone-correcting serum. Instead of relying on one strong ingredient, it combines several brightening actives, including niacinamide, tranexamic acid, alpha-arbutin, 4-butylresorcinol, a stable vitamin C derivative and glutathione, with PTT-6®, CALECIM's signature protein complex.

It is hydroquinone-free and designed for long-term daily use, with continued use and daily sunscreen.

Recommended For:

• Dark spots and sun spots
• Uneven or blotchy-looking skin tone
• Marks left after breakouts (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)
• Dullness
• All skin types

Benefits:

• Visibly reduces the look of dark spots and uneven tone
• Works on several pathways of visible pigmentation at once
• Brightens and evens the look of the complexion
• Hydroquinone-free, for long-term use
• Lightweight, layers easily

How to Use:

1. Morning and evening, on clean skin.
2. Apply a thin layer over the whole face or the areas of uneven tone.
3. For stubborn spots, apply a second targeted layer.
4. Follow with moisturizer.
5. Every morning, finish with broad-spectrum sunscreen. Without daily sun protection, pigmentation will keep returning.

Loshen & Crem's Recommendation:

Pigmentation rewards patience and punishes impatience. Give Pigment Solution a consistent few months, protect your skin from the sun every single day, and avoid picking or over-exfoliating, which creates new marks.

It pairs well with a professional treatment plan. After microneedling, peels or laser, do not apply it until your practitioner tells you it is time: the brightening actives are best kept off freshly treated skin.

About melasma: melasma is a chronic condition influenced by hormones, heat and light. A serum can help the look of pigmentation, but it cannot cure melasma. If you have melasma, we recommend a plan with your dermatologist and our estheticians.

What Is PTT-6®?

PTT-6® is the complex of proteins released by stem cells from the umbilical cord lining of red deer raised in New Zealand, collected after natural births and cultured in a laboratory. It contains growth factors, cytokines, glycoproteins, soluble collagen, albumin, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid. The serum contains no stem cells.

Key Ingredients:

• Niacinamide: helps even the look of tone and supports the barrier.
• Tranexamic Acid: helps reduce the look of stubborn, blotchy pigmentation.
• Alpha-Arbutin & Arbutin: help reduce the look of dark spots.
• 4-Butylresorcinol: a highly effective pigment-regulating ingredient.
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate: a stable vitamin C derivative for brightness and antioxidant support.

Questions We Get About Pigment Solution

Does it contain hydroquinone?

No. It is hydroquinone-free.

How long before I see results?

Pigmentation fades slowly. Give it consistent daily use over several months, always with sunscreen.

Can I use it with retinoids or exfoliants?

Often yes, but introduce one active at a time and watch for irritation, since irritation itself can trigger more pigmentation. Our estheticians can help you build the routine.

Is it vegan?

No. PTT-6® is derived from red deer cord lining stem cells, so it contains animal-derived ingredients. It contains no human-derived material.

Where can I buy CALECIM in Canada?

Calecim® Professional Pigment Solution is available at Loshen & Crem online and at our Edmonton, Alberta boutique.
