INTRODUCTION

Kojivit Ultra Gel is an intensive depigmentation gel for skin hyperpigmentation conditions like brown spots, acne scars and patches. It mainly contains octinoxate, niacinamide, glycolic acid, kojic acid dipalmitate, arbutin, mulberry extract, tocopheryl acetate, allantoin, liquorice extract and tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) to improve skin tone and texture by preventing discolouration of the skin.

Kojic acid protects the skin from sun damage and also possesses antimicrobial properties. Allantoin acts as a skin protectant, neutralizing irritants and moisturising the skin. Arbutin is a skin depigmentation agent which reduces melanin pigmentation. Niacinamide reduces the redness, itching and inflammation caused by acne. Glycolic acid aids in the exfoliation of affected and dead skin cells thereby reducing the acne mark. Tocopherol or Vitamin E and Octinoxate acts as an antioxidant that reduces UV damage to the skin which helps to maintain skin health.
