We recommend Decleor Aroma White Brightening Mattifying Fluid SPF 15 as your reliable alternative. With Ascorbyl Glucoside, Octinoxate, and Algae, it lightens hyperpigmentation, protects against future sun damage, and visibly firms the skin. You will find this product to be less irritating on your skin, with a smaller chance of redness, flaking, and peeling.
We are so confident in our recommendation that we are offering you a $25 eGift Certificate with your purchase.

how to use it
Please Note: This product is a physician-strength and physician-dispensed product and requires a telephone consultation with a licensed professional before ordering this product for the first time.Please follow instructions carefully to avoid any harsh skin reactions. The use of Hydroquinone and Retinol is not recommended during pregnancy or in children under the age of 12. It is not known whether topical Hydroquinoine or Retinol affects human milk, so its use is not recommended for nursing mothers. Hydroquinone and Retinol can cause sensitivity, so it is recommended to test a small amount of bleaching cream or gel on the skin and wait 24 hours. Minor redness is expected, but if you experience blistering or an excessive amount of inflammation discontinue use. If no lightening is noted after 2 months of treatment, the medication should also be discontinued.
Apply every morning over entire face and neck. Best results occur when reapplied every 4 hours during sun exposure.
I am in my sixties, and this was the only product that totally faded those ugly age spots. I have very sensitive skin, and there were no adverse reactions. I strongly recommend it.

For the past 10 years, I've had bad acne on the back of my arms. Over time, I had a lot of hyperpigmention from the acne. Not only did I have the hyperpigmentation, but I also still kept getting acne. I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of the acne and hyperpigmentation from over the counter stuff to prescription to seeing a dermatologist. Nothing worked. Then while going in for some laser hair removal, my clinician gave me a bottle of Obagi Sun Fader for any hyperpigmentation that may result from the laser hair removal. I tried it on the back of my arms, just to see what would happen. It WORKED. Not only did it get rid of 90% of my hyperpigmentation, but it also got rid of the acne. Something that a dermatologist couldn't even have done! I swear by this product. This is the best the back of my arms have looked in 10 years!
I added this to my nu-derm system and it is great. I have PIH - it prevents re-darkening, wears well under makeup and leaves no white cast. I recommend this and the entire nu-derm system!
I have purchased this product several times. It does fade, but on my skin, it took some time to see results and the results were uneven. My skin looked blotchy in some areas. I now use Tri-Luma Cream, which contains both 4% hydroquinone and Tretinoin. Tri-Luma Cream works very quickly and is a much more potent skin lightener. Almost overnight, it cleared up melasma and dark spots that years of chemical peels and Obagi Sun Fader did not eliminate entirely. I am not saying Obagi Sun Fader is bad. I just found something much better.
Ive tried EVERYTHING on my face and nothing has worked until I tried the obagi system. I get compliments all the time now and thats never happened to me in my life. If you want visible results in a short amount of time...invest in this product.
