Yes. TNS Essential Serum® includes our proprietary growth factor blend, TNS®, which is not part of Total Defense + Repair. Those growth factors are essential for rejuvenation.
Both products include powerful antioxidants, but the blends are very different and are designed to work in different ways to support the skin. The two products complement each other.
Additionally, Total Defense + Repair can be used with any SkinMedica® product or regimen to add a layer of protection.

I ordered two Total Defense plus Repair Sunscreen spf 34 and only received one!
I have phoned them, spoke to a young woman who said they sometimes are short of product and send what they have, and will send the rest later. But she said that without looking into my particular order. How does she know that they are sending me more? What if they have not made a note of the shortage and just have made a mistake and think the order has been shipped correctly?
I am still waiting for my second bottle. It looks like I am going to have to get on the phone again and make somebody get to the bottom of this.
This is very disappointing.

My fave sunscreen!
I really want to love this one but unfortunately it’s not for me. I feel dry in a couple of hours after applying and it peels off under makeup.
Love this product. Excellent service.

He usado este producto desde hace 2 años es súper bueno. Lo recomiendo. Yo amo este producto ❤️👍. Realmente funciona muy bien.
it really worked gave me confidence . I wish I had used it sooner
I have struggled with Melasma for some time, and just started using this product yesterday. My skin was peely this morning, but no more than my retinol products.
I have a question about use:
How frequently should I use this product to start with?
And can I use my Retinol Skin Brightner as well on days I’m not using Melamix? How should I incorporate these both, or is it best to use just one?
My second time on this program, the first time was last fall and I have seen a significant improvement in my melasma. I am back on it a second time around, hopefully the remaining melasma goes permanently. I think this would be a yearly treatment for me, I love how it has cleared up my skin.
In the last year I noticed some brown spots developing on my forehead (F, 31). This was after a few rounds of microneedling actually. I never noticed them before. Luckily, I found Cindy at Anti-Aging Vancouver and she assisted me with a consult and approved me to use this system for my melasma that had developed. It was so drying to my skin off the start. My whole face/neck was flaking for weeks. I can’t tell you how many times my coworkers commented that I was having a reaction to something. It’s not a reaction, it’s normal with the use of this product. Cindy was always there to reply to an email from me when I wondered if the flaking would ever stop or any questions on how to properly use the product. Once my skin got used to it I’ve never seen my skin in better shape. I’ll attach a before and after picture. Even my texture improved which I wasn’t expecting. Of course my melasma has not completely went away it is improved. I have to be off of the product for a while but I plan on going on another round of it eventually to try and further help reduce my melasma. It’s really a hate/love relationship. You hate the product at first but once your skin gets used to it, YOU LOVE IT! My only recommendation is perhaps avoid this system during the summer. It was full summer while I was on my system and I will definitely plan around summer next time. I was super worried about sun exposure with the hydroquinone. Anyways, I highly recommend!
A bit harsh if you use to much but it’s working wonders 👍
Love this stuff
