The SkinBetter A-Team Duo Kit combines two of the brand's advanced formulas to help defend, repair, and visibly rejuvenate skin. This professional-grade pairing targets multiple signs of aging while protecting against environmental and internal stressors for healthier, more radiant-looking skin. The kit features Allyl PQQ, a patented antioxidant technology that neutralizes free radicals produced by the body's natural processes.

This breakthrough antioxidant treatment goes beyond vitamins C and E with 17 additional antioxidants to protect against a wide range of environmental damage while also addressing internal oxidative stress. It improves tone, texture, and radiance, and is gentle enough for post-procedure use to support skin recovery.

Winner of 16 industry awards, AlphaRet merges a potent retinoid with lactic acid for exceptional renewal benefits with minimal irritation. In as little as four weeks, it visibly softens wrinkles, smooths uneven texture, and improves clarity, while added hydration counters the dryness often associated with retinoid use.

Together, these two products create a streamlined AM/PM routine that helps protect by day and repair by night. Apply Alto Advanced under sunscreen each morning, and layer AlphaRet over it at night. Regular use leaves skin looking smoother, firmer, and more even-toned, making the A-Team Duo Kit a good starting point if you want a clinically proven routine for visible aging.

AlphaRet Overnight Cream delivers the power of a retinoid and lactic acid in one innovative formula, designed to rejuvenate the skin while minimizing irritation. The formula visibly reduces the look of wrinkles and fine lines, improves texture, and restores a youthful radiance. Apply one pump in the evening after your serums, and wear sunscreen the next morning.

Unlike traditional retinoid-based products that can leave skin feeling tight or dry, this cream includes a deeply hydrating blend of ceramides, squalane, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid to keep your skin supple and comfortable. It’s a rejuvenating treatment and moisture barrier support in one, making it perfect for maintaining healthy, glowing skin.

A targeted peptide blend works alongside vitamins C and E, Coenzyme Q10, and calming botanicals to defend against free radical damage and soothe visible redness. These synergistic ingredients not only enhance skin’s resilience but also help maintain a balanced, even complexion over time. This calming support means it can suit reactive skin as well.

Ideal for addressing multiple signs of aging at once, AlphaRet Overnight Cream helps smooth texture, soften lines, and promote a firmer look to the skin. Peptides help signal the skin to repair, firm, and rebuild itself. Its gentle yet effective formula makes it a great choice for those seeking professional-level results while staying comfortable on the skin.

Epicutis Arctigenin Brightening Treatment is designed for those who struggle with persistent hyperpigmentation but cannot tolerate many traditional brightening ingredients. This formula gently fades dark spots, evens out tone, and restores radiance, making it ideal for sensitive, reactive, or post-inflammatory skin types. Because pigmentation often starts with inflammation, it works by calming the skin first.

Powered by arctigenin and a proprietary blend of botanicals, this formula reduces pigmentation caused by inflammation, UV damage, or breakouts. It strengthens the skin barrier, calms irritation, and supports skin health, helping your complexion look brighter, smoother, and more even over time. Arctigenin, a burdock root extract, helps reduce the inflammation that can trigger excess melanin.

This formula is hydroquinone-free, fragrance-free, and non-sensitizing. It is suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types and tones, and it pairs well with lasers and peels to support results and minimize post-procedure pigmentation, following your provider's aftercare. After microneedling, wait forty-eight hours before using it, unless your provider gave you specific aftercare for that window.

This is not a temporary tone corrector; it is a long-term brightening strategy that supports skin resilience and reduces future pigment flare-ups. With consistent use, you will see a clearer, healthier glow emerge, without dryness, peeling, or rebound pigmentation. Hyvia, a biotech form of chia seed oil, adds hydration and barrier protection along the way.

SkinBetter BioRewind is a supplement designed to target glycation, one of the causes of skin aging. By addressing Advanced Glycation End Products that damage collagen and elastin, BioRewind helps restore the look of smoother, firmer, more youthful skin. Its formula pairs rosemary extract with biotin and zinc to support skin from the inside.

At the heart of BioRewind is CORExtract, a patented blend centered on rosmarinic acid, biotin, and zinc. This formula works at the cellular level to help reverse glycation, reduce oxidative stress, and protect your skin’s structural proteins from premature breakdown. Biotin also supports fatty acid production and energy metabolism, two processes that help keep skin healthy.

In clinical testing, BioRewind showed visible improvements in skin health and vibrancy in as little as eight weeks. The combination of antioxidant protection and glycation defense helps minimize the look of wrinkles and uneven texture while supporting a healthier skin appearance. Its benefits extend to dullness, redness, and uneven tone, so it supports a wide range of skin goals.

When used consistently, BioRewind builds a foundation for stronger, more resilient skin. It complements your topical skincare by working internally to target aging at its source, making it an ideal year-round addition to any skin health regimen. Take it with meals, starting with a higher dose in the first month and tapering to one capsule twice daily from month three onward.

Uneven tone, dark spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation are driven by excess melanin production that surface cleansing alone cannot address. Revision Brightening Facial Wash contains three melanin-inhibiting actives that work at the cleansing step to gradually fade existing discoloration and prevent new spots from forming. With consistent daily use, skin tone becomes measurably more even and the complexion looks clearer and more luminous over time.

Oily, combination, and acne-prone skin needs a cleanser that penetrates the pore lining rather than just removing surface debris. The salicylic acid in this formula is oil-soluble, which means it travels into the pore to dissolve the buildup that leads to blackheads and breakouts. With consistent use, pores stay consistently cleaner and breakouts become less frequent, making it a strong daily option for congestion-prone skin.

Dead skin cells accumulate on the surface over time, causing dullness, rough texture, and uneven tone that most cleansers do nothing to address. Revision Brightening Facial Wash delivers dual-acid exfoliation through glycolic and salicylic acid at the cleansing step, removing surface buildup and pore congestion simultaneously. With consistent use skin becomes progressively smoother, clearer, and more receptive to everything applied afterward.

Revision Brightening Facial Wash adds antioxidant protection to the cleansing step. White tea extract and vitamin E neutralize the free radical damage that accumulates throughout the day, while the wash cleans the skin. For mature and sun-damaged skin in particular, this daily antioxidant exposure adds a layer of protection that builds over time with twice-daily use.

Revision Skincare C+ Correcting Complex 30% is a vitamin C serum with 30% THD Ascorbate, a highly stable and deeply penetrating form of vitamin C. THD Ascorbate works at a skin-neutral pH, which means it suits all skin types, including sensitive skin that has found low-pH vitamin C irritating. It brightens, firms, evens tone, and defends against environmental damage.

Blue light from screens and urban pollution both generate free radical damage that contributes to skin aging. C+ Correcting Complex contains patent-pending MelaPATH Technology, which targets free radical damage from HEV blue light and urban dust. For anyone living or working in a city or spending long hours in front of screens, this protection is especially relevant.

Uneven tone, dullness, and discoloration come from excess melanin production and oxidative damage that builds up over time. C+ Correcting Complex delivers 30% THD Ascorbate that inhibits melanin production, fades existing discoloration, and restores clarity. In clinical studies, 87% of users reported visibly brighter skin and 94% reported improved evenness of skin tone after 12 weeks of consistent twice-daily use.

Vitamin C is an essential cofactor in collagen synthesis, which produces the structural protein that keeps skin firm and smooth. At 30%, C+ Correcting Complex delivers a high daily dose that supports new collagen production and helps skin maintain its structure over time. In clinical studies, 84% of users reported visibly firmer skin after 12 weeks of consistent use.

Vivant Dark Spots Duo pairs True Tone 2.0 and the 8% Mandelic Acid Serum in a dermatologist-developed protocol designed specifically for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. The 8% Mandelic Acid Serum delivers controlled exfoliation in the morning to refine texture and enhance the performance of the evening brightening step, while True Tone 2.0 works overnight with its hydroquinone-free retinoid and brightening complex to visibly fade discoloration. Clinical results show visible improvement in dark spots after 90 days of consistent use.

Mandelic acid is one of the most versatile actives for hyperpigmentation-prone skin because it addresses pigment through three separate mechanisms simultaneously: it exfoliates the surface to accelerate the removal of existing discoloration, it has direct tyrosinase-inhibiting activity that slows new pigment formation, and its antibacterial properties help prevent the breakouts that create new PIH in the first place. At 8% this serum delivers meaningful exfoliation and brightening without the irritation risk that higher-strength AHAs carry, making it appropriate for consistent daily use across all skin tones.

Most brightening serums rely on a single mechanism, typically one tyrosinase inhibitor, to address pigmentation. True Tone 2.0 takes a multi-pathway approach: the REt (RP) Retinyl Propionate drives cell turnover to accelerate the removal of pigmented cells, kojic acid inhibits tyrosinase to suppress new melanin formation, clinical mandelic acid and lactic acid refine the surface, and Oligopeptide-68 delivers an additional layer of melanin synthesis inhibition. The result is a brightening system that addresses existing discoloration and prevents new formation simultaneously, with the added benefit of retinoid-driven anti-aging activity built in.

PIH responds best to a layered approach that addresses pigment formation, cell turnover, and surface exfoliation simultaneously rather than relying on a single brightening active. The Dark Spots Duo splits this work strategically across morning and evening: exfoliation and pigment regulation in the AM to prepare and protect, concentrated retinoid-driven brightening in the PM to renew and correct. Splitting the actives across two time slots reduces the risk of irritation that comes from stacking multiple exfoliating and brightening ingredients in the same step, and allows each serum to perform at its best.

Pavise Dynamic Age Defense shields your skin with reef-safe DiamondCore zinc oxide while delivering antioxidant-rich protection that actively combats signs of aging. It works double duty to block UVA/UVB rays and support smoother, healthier-looking skin over time. The formula also calms inflammation, making it a trusted choice for stressed or sensitive skin.

This silky, sheer formula blends seamlessly across all skin tones without a white cast. Lightweight and breathable, it layers well under makeup or other skincare without piling or residue. The hydrating finish leaves skin looking smooth and naturally radiant, with no greasy feel. Massage two pumps into the face and one into the neck and décolletage.

At the heart of this formula is Pavise’s patented DiamondCore zinc oxide, engineered to protect skin on a cellular level by absorbing harmful UV rays without breaking down or generating free radicals. It is backed by bioadaptive technology that adjusts to environmental stressors while protecting skin DNA from long-term damage.

Pavise Dynamic Age Defense is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive or acne-prone skin. The non-comedogenic, fragrance-free formula supports barrier strength and reduces oxidative stress with every application. It is an effortless daily step toward smoother, healthier, and more resilient skin. Tranexamic acid and licorice root also help even out tone and soothe visible redness.

SkinBetter Even Tone Correcting Serum is a hydroquinone-free and retinol-free serum that visibly brightens and evens skin tone. It reduces the look of stubborn dark spots and discoloration while being gentle enough for daily use. Apply a thin layer to the face, neck, and décolleté, morning and night, as part of your regular routine.

With its patented b.r.y.t. Technology, this serum works on multiple pathways to improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation, melasma, and age spots. It also addresses the yellow or sallow tone that can appear with age, restoring a fresher, more radiant look. The formula also helps calm redness and supports the skin barrier.

Key actives like diglucosyl gallic acid, hexylresorcinol, and alpha-arbutin help fade visible discoloration, while Kakadu plum extract boosts brightness with its high vitamin C content. A specialized amino acid complex supports a luminous, balanced complexion. Alpha-arbutin inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production, and hexylresorcinol adds antioxidant support.

Because it is hydroquinone-free and retinol-free, this serum can be used both morning and night, which makes it easy to keep your progress going every day. Pair it with AlphaRet for quicker results, or use it to help maintain an even tone after peels or laser sessions. After microneedling, wait forty-eight hours before using it.

Photo-aged skin carries years of accumulated structural damage. Triple Repair Complex delivers the proprietary GFP Complex, combining phyto-derived growth factors and Retinyl Propionate, to catalyze intensive cellular renewal, rebuild collagen, and restore the skin's structural integrity. In as little as two months of consistent nighttime use, skin shows visible improvements in tone, texture, firmness, dark spots, and deep wrinkles.

Sun-induced hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and blotchy discoloration are among the most stubborn visible signs of cumulative photo-damage. Triple Repair Complex targets this through Oligopeptide-68, a skin brightening peptide that helps regulate melanin production, alongside lactic acid that resurfaces the skin and accelerates the clearance of discolored surface cells. Together they produce measurable improvements in the evenness and clarity of the complexion with consistent nightly use.

Rough, uneven texture in mature and photo-aged skin comes from years of slowed cell turnover and surface buildup. Lactic acid in Triple Repair Complex works at the chemical level to dissolve this buildup, resurface the skin, and reveal smoother, more radiant skin beneath. It also improves moisture retention at the surface, so skin feels more hydrated alongside the exfoliation.

Triple Repair Complex addresses fine lines and wrinkles through two distinct mechanisms working together. Retinyl Propionate stimulates collagen production and accelerates cell renewal, while the Matrixyl 3000 peptide blend repairs the extracellular matrix responsible for skin firmness and structural integrity. Together they address both the cause and the appearance of wrinkles more fully than either active could achieve alone.

Intensive AlphaRet Overnight Cream is a powerful nighttime cream designed to improve the look of lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, and rough texture. Featuring AlphaRet Technology, a patented fusion of a retinoid and an alpha hydroxy acid, it delivers visible rejuvenation with minimal irritation. Apply one pump to a clean, dry face in the evening.

This version contains the highest level of glycolic acid in the AlphaRet line, working alongside lactic acid to retexturize skin for a smoother, more even appearance. The increased exfoliation power supports improved cell turnover, helping to diminish the look of discoloration, refine pores, and reveal a healthier, more radiant complexion.

A nourishing blend of ceramides, squalane, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid replenishes moisture and strengthens the skin barrier, counteracting the dryness often associated with retinoids. Calming agents such as allantoin, bisabolol, and green tea extract help soothe the skin, reducing visible redness and supporting a more comfortable nightly treatment experience.

Powerful antioxidants, including vitamins C and E and Coenzyme Q10, help neutralize free radicals that can accelerate signs of aging. This added environmental protection works in tandem with AlphaRet’s resurfacing benefits, making it ideal for those seeking advanced results without the downtime often linked to intensive treatments.

GlyMed Plus Pigment Brightening Serum is designed to target stubborn dark spots, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation without relying on hydroquinone. It is a gentle, effective option for brightening uneven skin tone and restoring clarity to dull, spot-prone skin. It brightens gradually and can be used morning and night as the first step after cleansing.

This serum gently encourages cell turnover while targeting uneven tone, dark spots, and post-acne marks. With brightening botanicals and exfoliating acids, it works to refine the complexion and support long-term clarity. Because it already contains gentle acids, it works best in a routine that is light on other exfoliants, with your serums and moisturizer layered on top.

Key ingredients like glycolic acid exfoliate surface pigment, phytic acid helps reduce melanin production, and vitamin C delivers antioxidant protection. Soothing extracts like aloe, bisabolol, and green tea calm inflammation to keep skin balanced and comfortable. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size of all AHAs, which lets it travel further into the skin, and phytic acid binds excess metals to support clarity.

Pigment Brightening Serum fits easily into most skincare routines and is suitable for long-term use. Whether you are tackling sun damage, melasma, or acne marks, this serum offers a hydroquinone-free path to radiant, even-toned skin. Its gradual, layered approach to brightening and its pregnancy-safe formula make it easy to keep in your routine for the long term.
