- Jojoba Oil: wax ester, similar to sebum and an effective moisturiser, semi occlusive coating to the skin allowing skin to be protected from environmental stress.

STEP 1: Dr.V EyeMax™
High strength tyrosinase inhibiting cream to slow down the rate of melanin production.
Directions: Cleanse the skin around the eyes and apply a very thin layer of EyeMax (about '1 grain of rice' worth per eye) followed by an unscented thick moisturiser on top.
STEP 2: Dr.V DC Repair™
Periorbital skin restoring cream
Directions: Apply alternate nights to EyeMax followed by a non-scented moisturiser. Do not apply within 2mm from the edges of the upper & lower eye lids (lash lines). Only use on unbroken, non irritated skin. Discontinue in the rare event of a skin reaction.
With both products above, if there is any irritation or sensitivity, please stop for a 3-4 days and try again with a smaller amount of product.
Please apply a simple SPF50 suncream throughout the day as UV rays will re-trigger hyperpigmentation. Keep the skin well hydrated at all times with a simple thick, non-fragranced moisturiser. Not to be used in conjunction with other treatment products, anti-ageing creams, toners, vitamin A&C creams, exfoliating scrubs etc on the same area of skin (you may apply these products on other non-target areas).

-----------------
WARNING - Not to be used if you: are pregnant, are allergic to any of the ingredients or their derivatives (inc. aspirin), have any active skin conditions around the eyes (e.g. eczema), have very sensitive or very dry skin, have had any professional eye treatments within 3 months. Only use on normal skin, not if irritated or injured. If using isotretinoin, avoid usage of DC Kit until 6+ months after completion. Discontinue and seek medical advice from your GP in the rare event of a skin reaction.
Results: vary from person to person and are not guaranteed. If dark circles have been present for many years, you are likely to require tyrosinase inhibitors for at least 6 cell cycles (6+ months). 1 kit lasts approx. 3 months, so 2 kits are recommended. Results depend on the resistance to treatment of your melanocytes.
An Independent clinical study of 26 candidates showed 88% saw a significant reduction in pigmentation around the eyes after 12 weeks (click here to download).
Side Effects: (rare) may include but not limited to mild & temporary: dry skin, irritation, swelling, redness or darkening. Localised skin reactions are a rare but potential side-effect of DC kit creams. Reduce dosage or discontinue if symptoms are persistent or severe. In the event of a severe skin reaction, seek urgent medical assistance from your doctor.
1. Why do we get dark circles?
Skin of colour contains larger melanocytes that are easily triggered after puberty from 16-25 years old.
A study on 200 candidates in the Indian Journal of Dermatology showed 47.5% had Periorbital Hyperpigmentation. 63% of them had family history of dark circles which was classed as hereditary hyperpigmentation.
Wood lamp examination showed 60% of those with dark circles had dermal pigmentation. Therefore, most dark circles creams on the market do not work. You need a combination of 8 different tyrosinase inhibitors, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory ingredients, and humectants.
2. What is happening at a cellular level?
Melanocytes are large and cluster around the eye. They are easily triggered from UV, irritation, rubbing or dermatitis. Dark circles look worse with age as collagen is lost and skin appears thinner.
3. Can hereditary dark circles be treated?
They tend to be more resistant and take longer to treat, we recommend minimum 2 kits in this case.
4. How does the Dark Circles Kit Work?
Very high strength Tyrosinase Inhibitors will slow the rate of melanin production. Results are not immediate or guaranteed and often require 3-6 full cell cycles to start to see a difference
5. How many kits do we Recommend?
If you have had Dark circles for many years, you are likely to require 2 kits.
6. Is there a guarantee?
Results will vary from person to person. You cannot know how your cells will respond until you go through treatment.

LipX High Strength Active ingredients & function
- Tocopheryl Acetate- Oil-soluble anti-oxidant, mops up free radicals to prevent further hyperpigmentation. It improves the skin barrier and hydration levels to create a healing environment for the skin.
- Retinyl Palmitate- (Vitamin A) stimulates production of new skin cells and assists with photoaging pigmentation.
- Kojic Dipalmitate- Tyrosinase Inhibitor, which then slows down the rate of melanin production. Best form of Kojic acid for skin of colour.
- Alpha-Arbutin- Tyrosinase Inhibitor. Derivative of Hydroquinone but without the side effects. This is why it is suitable for skin of colour.
- Liquorice extract- Tyrosinase Inhibitor, which then slows down the rate of melanin production.
- Niacinamide- Prevents melanosome transfer from the melanocytes (cells that produce melanin) to the surrounding Keratinocytes. So less melanin is visible on the skin's surface.
- Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate- Stable, non-irritating form of Azelaic acid
- Phytic Acid- Treats dermal pigmentation. Anti Oxidant and chelates iron molecules in the skin, which are responsible for causing damage to DNA.
- Octadecanoic Acid- It acts along the melanin pathway from reducing melanin production to reducing melanin transfer to the keratinocytes.

An Independent clinical study of 24 candidates showed 100% saw a significant reduction in lip pigmentation with no significant side effects (click here to download), however please note:
* Results may vary from person to person and are not guaranteed *
Hyperpigmentation shouldn’t return as long as you are vigilant with your SPF50 lip balm during the day and there are no new causes of pigmentation.
Side-effects may include but are not limited to minor irritation to the treated skin, or some mild stinging, redness, peeling or swelling. In the rare event of an allergic reaction, please discontinue immediately and seek medical advice from your doctor.
1. How does Dr.V LipX treatment work?
Dr.V LipX kit uses very high strength Tyrosinase Inhibitors to slow down the rate of melanin production. The kit treats the root cause of pigmentation to give long term results compared to the normal lip scrubs which only take the top layer of dead pigmented cells away but the skin is a living organ and cells will grow back pigmented.
2. Why do we get Lip Hyperpigmentation?
Lip pigmentation can be caused by:
- UV damage,
- chemical burns from acid peels or "home remedies" like lemon juice,
- hot drinks burning the upper lips,
- lip inflammation,
- cigarette smoking or
- an allergic reaction to cosmetics.
Inflammation takes place which triggers the sensitive melanocytes in skin of colour. Melanocytes over-produce melanin and lead to a darkening of the lips.
"Your natural lip colour is the colour you are born with, darkening happens with micro injury and inflammation over time" Dr Vanita Rattan
3. What are common mistakes for treating Lip Pigmentation in skin of colour:
- Lip Scrubs: Will remove the top layer of dead pigmented skin but the skin grows back and pigmentation returns
- Honey- this will cause you to lick your lips and introduce more amylase onto the skin which will irritate the lip skin and further exacerbate lip pigmentation
- Lemon juice- has a pH of 2 which is far too acidic for our skin which has a pH of 5.5. This can burn the skin and lead to more pigmentation
- Apple cider vinegar has a pH of 2.5 which can also burn lips and lead to post inflammatory Hyperpigmentation.
None of the above are suitable for skin of colour and this is an issue seen mainly in Asian and African origin populations.
