Bioderma's Pigmentbio C-Concentrate is a multi-acid brightening serum that throws five anti-pigmentation actives at dark spots simultaneously — and the combination is genuinely smart. Ascorbyl glucoside (stable vitamin C derivative) inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme that catalyses melanin production. Glycolic acid accelerates surface-cell turnover, shedding pigmented keratinocytes. Niacinamide blocks melanosome transfer from melanocytes to surrounding skin cells. Azelaic acid — the dermatologist's darling for rosacea AND pigmentation — provides anti-inflammatory action while inhibiting abnormal melanocyte activity. Salicylic acid penetrates pores to address post-acne marks at the follicular level. The five-pathway approach means this serum works on all types of hyperpigmentation: melasma (hormonal), PIH (post-inflammatory), sun spots, and the diffuse dullness that comes from uneven melanin distribution. Licorice root extract adds further tyrosinase inhibition. Laminaria ochroleuca (brown algae) provides antioxidant support. The 15ml tube is small but the concentrate is potent — a few drops cover the full face. This is Bioderma proving that ecobiology can be aggressive when the skin condition warrants it: five acids, five pathways, one precisely calibrated formula.
