    What the studies found
    • Most studies found niacinamide helped acne
    • Some studies found 4% niacinamide cleared acne about as well as clindamycin
    • One study found 4% niacinamide improved red, sore spots, but IPL worked better
    • Some research found no clear difference, and a large review said the effects were uncertain
  • Hyperpigmentation

    Some evidence

    Niacinamide: 5 studies tested it on its own. See all 24 studies

    What the studies found
    • All of these studies found niacinamide helped fade dark spots or patches
    • In clinical trials, 5% niacinamide faded dark spots more than a placebo
    • It also helped when used with salicylic acid peels, more than peels alone
    • Used on its own, it helped, but one study found a niacinamide mix worked better
    • One study found the fading effect reversed after stopping niacinamide
