A prescription formula for the marks acne leaves behind, built with three actives: tranexamic acid to calm the inflammatory signals keeping marks pink and red, kojic acid to slow new discoloration from setting in, and niacinamide to keep your barrier comfortable while they work.
Built for skin that's already healing, not for active breakouts. It's a real prescription, designed for your skin and delivered to your door.
Treats the following P.I.E. concerns:
Active ingredients:
Exact concentrations are determined by a board-certified dermatologist on your care team based on your assessment, your tolerance, and your skin's history. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.
As with any new prescription, some people notice mild, temporary effects while skin adjusts to treatment. These are typically short-lived and manageable with simple care steps.
Common adjustment effects can include mild tingling, dryness, or sensitivity in the first one to two weeks. This formula is built for skin that's already healing, so it's gentler than active-acne treatments. A board-certified dermatologist on our clinical team reviews your case and sets a formulation appropriate for your skin.
Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen, minimum SPF 30, every morning. UV exposure prolongs and worsens post-inflammatory marks.
The Acne Solution
A daily prescription formula that helps keep pores clear and control acne-prone breakouts.
The Redness & Acne Formula
A multitasking prescription formula that helps calm redness and control breakouts, for skin that flushes as well as breaks out.

“The acne was gone. The marks weren’t.”
“My breakouts finally stopped, but I still had red spots all over my cheeks that made it look like I had acne. After about two months, I realized I wasn’t reaching for concealer every morning anymore. The marks are so much lighter and my skin finally looks like it’s actually healing.”

“Even the marks I’d had for months started fading.”
“I had some red spots that had been sitting on my cheeks for months and nothing seemed to move them. The newer ones faded first, then gradually the older ones started getting lighter too. My skin tone looks so much more even now.”

“I don’t feel like I’m covering yesterday’s acne anymore.”
“My hormonal breakouts always left red marks around my chin and jaw long after the actual pimples disappeared. It felt never-ending. I’ve been consistent with this and SPF, and the difference is huge. I still have a couple of faint spots, but my whole lower face looks calmer and more even.”

“For the first time, my skin actually looks clear.”
“This was the frustrating part nobody warned me about. My acne improved, but all the red marks made my face still look broken out in photos. Around the second month they were noticeably softer. Now when I look in the mirror, I see clear skin instead of the aftermath of every breakout I’ve had.”
Chloe T. · Verified Buyer

“I finally understood what kind of marks I had.”
“I kept buying products for dark spots, but a lot of what I was seeing after my breakouts was actually red and pink. Once I started treating the right thing, I could finally see them fading. My skin isn’t filtered or perfect—it just looks so much more even.”

“It faded the marks without making my skin angry again.”
“After getting my acne under control, I was scared to put anything strong on my face because my skin had already been through so much. This has been surprisingly easy to use. The redness left behind from my old breakouts has faded gradually, and my skin looks healthier instead of irritated.”

The clinical team
The Red Mark Solution Rx wasn't formulated by an algorithm or pulled from a generic template. Its protocol was designed by Dr. Lindsey Zubritsky, Dr. Mamina Turegano, and Dr. Jenny Liu — three board-certified dermatologists with decades of combined experience treating real patients. Your prescription is then written by a board-certified dermatologist on our clinical team, working from the protocol they built. Dermatologist-built medicine, delivered to your door.
What's in the bottle
The Red Mark Solution Rx pairs three prescription actives with three supporting ingredients designed to fade post-acne marks while keeping your barrier comfortable as your skin recovers.
Active Ingredients
THE CALMER
Quiets the inflammation signals that keep post-acne redness visible long after the breakout itself is gone. The active that does most of the heavy lifting on PIE.
THE PIGMENT INHIBITOR
Slows the production of new discoloration at the source. Helps prevent fresh marks from setting in while the existing ones fade.
THE BUFFER
A form of vitamin B3 that strengthens the skin barrier, visibly reduces redness, and makes the rest of the formula more tolerable. The reason your skin stays comfortable through the process.Supporting Ingredients
THE BRIGHTENER
A clinically studied botanical that helps improve the look of red and dark marks, used in dermatology for tone-evening because it works without irritating.
THE SOOTHER
A clinically studied botanical that soothes irritation and supports recovery. The quiet ingredient that keeps the strong ones comfortable.
THE BARRIER REPAIR
Lipids that reinforce the skin barrier and lock in moisture. Barrier health is what lets your skin keep recovering — ceramides protect the foundation.Exact concentrations are determined by a board-certified dermatologist on your care team based on your assessment, your tolerance, and your skin's history. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.
What to expect
The Red Mark Solution Rx works on the residual inflammation that keeps post-acne marks looking pink and red after the breakout itself is gone. Tranexamic acid calms the inflammatory signals; kojic acid helps diminish both the red and dark elements of post-acne marks; and niacinamide supports the barrier while it recovers. It's slower than concealer but it's the actual work — every week, the marks look slightly less obvious, until one day you realize you stopped reaching for color-correcting makeup.
The Red Mark Solution Rx is our targeted prescription for PIE (post-inflammatory erythema) — the pink and red marks left after acne heals. It's not an acne treatment — it doesn't address active breakouts — it's the next-step formula for skin that's moved past active acne and is ready to recover. Most patients use it after their acne is under control, either standalone or paired with an ongoing acne treatment to prevent new marks from forming.
Left with red or pink marks after breakouts have healed
Showing uneven tone or lingering discoloration after acne clears
No longer experiencing active breakouts but still seeing their aftermath
Dealing with PIE (post-inflammatory erythema) that hasn't faded on its own
In need of a gentle, targeted recovery treatment, as confirmed during your assessment
Still experiencing active acne — The Acne SolutionRx or The Advanced Acne SolutionRx should come first; this formula doesn't treat breakouts
Dealing with raised acne scars (ice-pick, boxcar, rolling) — these require in-office procedures, not topical treatment
Pregnant, nursing, or trying to conceive — consult a board-certified dermatologist on your care team before starting
Dealing primarily with deep brown post-acne marks (PIH) in deeper skin tones — The Dark Spot SolutionRx may be a better fit for that pattern
Looking for an immediate cosmetic solution — color-correcting makeup is faster; this formula takes weeks
Realistic timeline
Post-acne mark recovery is patient work. Pink marks tend to fade gradually, week by week, with consistent daily use. Here's what most patients experience.

Both target discoloration, but they address different types. The Red Mark Solutionᴿˣ is built for PIE — post-inflammatory erythema — the flat pink and red marks left after acne heals. These are vascular in nature. The Dark Spot Solutionᴿˣ is built for PIH — post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — the brown and dark marks more common in deeper skin tones. If you're dealing with red marks, this is the formula. If your marks are brown or deeply pigmented, The Dark Spot Solutionᴿˣ may be the better fit. Your assessment determines which one fits your pattern.
You can, but it's most effective once your breakouts are under control. The Red Mark Solutionᴿˣ is for what active breakouts leave behind. If you're still breaking out, pairing it with The Red Mark Solutionᴿˣ or The Advanced Acne Solutionᴿˣ may make sense — the breakout-focused formula helps prevent new marks from forming while this one helps fade the existing ones. A board-certified dermatologist on your care team will advise on the right combination during your assessment.
Most patients start noticing a shift between weeks 3 and 6. The most recent marks tend to fade first — older, more established marks take longer. By weeks 6 to 12, most patients describe their tone as meaningfully more even and reach for color-correcting makeup less often. Consistency is what drives results — missing days extends the timeline.
Yes — it's specifically designed for skin that's already been through inflammation and needs a gentler recovery approach. Unlike active acne treatments (retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, high-concentration acids), The Red Mark Solutionᴿˣ is formulated to treat the aftermath without stressing the barrier further. If you have known sensitivities, a board-certified dermatologist on your care team will review them during your assessment.
No — and this is an important distinction. Acne marks (PIE and PIH) are flat discoloration in healed skin and they fade with topical treatment. Acne scars are structural changes to the skin — ice-pick scars, boxcar scars, rolling scars — and they don't respond to topical formulas. If you have raised or pitted scars, in-office procedures (microneedling, laser, subcision, fillers) are the treatments that work. A board-certified dermatologist on your care team can help you understand which you're dealing with during your assessment.
Yes — non-negotiable. UV exposure prolongs and worsens post-inflammatory marks, regardless of whether they're red (PIE) or brown (PIH). Broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, every morning, every day, is essential for the formula to do its work. Without daily SPF, you're treating marks while creating new pigmentation pathways at the same time.
The Red Mark Solution Rx is built for the marks acne leaves behind. If you're still dealing with active breakouts — or if your discoloration runs deeper than post-acne redness — there's a tier built for that. Your assessment routes you to the one that fits.
