How it works

UV radiation and oxidative stress cause uneven melanin distribution in the skin, resulting in dark spots commonly called age spots or sun spots. — Caffeine Applied Topically to the Skin — Benefits and Limitations
Caffeine's primary mechanism against hyperpigmentation is antioxidant action: neutralizing free radicals reduces oxidative signals that drive excess melanin production. — Caffeine Applied Topically to the Skin — Benefits and Limitations
Topical caffeine adds to local antioxidant capacity in the skin. — Caffeine Applied Topically to the Skin — Benefits and Limitations
People with higher skin antioxidant levels have greater protection against UV-induced hyperpigmentation. — Caffeine Applied Topically to the Skin — Benefits and Limitations
