Product details

Dr.Melaxin Peel Shot Exfoliating TX Serum is a dual-action Korean ampoule that combines 99% tranexamic acid with niacinamide and gentle AHA/PHA chemistry to exfoliate, brighten, and refine pores.

This 80ml serum pairs peeling and ampoule care to remove excess sebum and dead skin cells while delivering targeted actives during the skin’s most receptive window. Designed to clear surface congestion and improve ingredient uptake, the formula aims to refine texture, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and support an even, radiant complexion without over-stripping moisture.

How does this serum exfoliate without harsh irritation?

Dr.Melaxin blends multiple acid types—AHA for surface renewal, PHA for gentle hydration-friendly exfoliation, and BHA for sebum-targeted cleansing—so exfoliation happens at different skin layers while minimizing irritation. The presence of rice-derived humectants and PENTAVITIN helps maintain hydration and soothe the skin barrier during the renewal process.

  • Multi-level exfoliation: AHA, BHA, and PHA for layered renewal
  • Hydration support: rice bran water and PENTAVITIN prevent dryness
  • Gentle action: PHAs reduce irritation risk compared with stronger single-acid treatments
  • Suitable for routine use when introduced gradually

What active ingredients target uneven tone and dark spots?

The serum features 99% pure tranexamic acid as a primary brightening ingredient that works alongside niacinamide to visibly even skin tone. Rice extracts and a proprietary "Pentarice" complex contribute antioxidant and nutrient-rich support, helping skin look clearer and more luminous over time.

  • Tranexamic acid (99%): targets pigmentation pathways
  • Niacinamide: supports barrier function and refines pore appearance
  • Pentarice and rice bran water: provide nutrients and mild brightening effects
  • Complementary antioxidants help protect and improve overall radiance

How does this product help with pores and texture?

By dissolving dead skin and excess sebum, the Peel Shot allows pore-targeted ingredients to access the sebaceous glands and follicles more effectively. Regular use refines rough texture and reduces the visible size of pores, while niacinamide helps smooth and strengthen the skin surface.

  • Clears blackheads and surface buildup for cleaner pores
  • Pore-tightening actives work after exfoliation for improved absorption
  • Texture softening from combined chemical exfoliation and humectants
  • Non-abrasive delivery that supports a more even skin surface

When and how should I use the Peel Shot in my routine?

Use this ampoule after cleansing and before heavier serums or creams, particularly at times when your skin needs deeper renewal—typically a few times per week to start. Apply a small amount, allow the product to absorb fully, then layer hydrating and sun-protective products; reduce frequency if sensitivity occurs.

  • Apply on clean, dry skin after cleansing
  • Start 1–2 times weekly, increase as tolerated
  • Follow with moisturizer and daytime SPF when used in the morning
  • Avoid combining with other strong actives until skin adapts

Who is this for: Dr.Melaxin Peel Shot suits people seeking a targeted chemical exfoliant that also delivers brightening and hydrating benefits—ideal for those with uneven tone, visible pores, rough texture, or dull skin who want a Korean-style ampoule that balances renewal and moisture. Not recommended for severely compromised, actively inflamed skin; perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin or are using potent prescription actives.

FAQ

Q: Can I use this daily?

A: Start 1–2 times per week, then increase as tolerated; daily use may be suitable after skin builds tolerance.

Q: Is it safe with vitamin C or retinol?

A: Use cautiously: avoid layering strong actives at once. Stagger application times to reduce irritation risk.
