There are two main concentrations available for Hydroquinone:

• Hydroquinone 2%.
• Hydroquinone 4%

Which type should you choose?

For mild dark spots, you should use 2% Hydroquinone whereas to effectively treat melasma & hyperpigmentation down deeper layers, you should use 4% Hydroquinone, Hyderquin Plus cream or Tri-Melasin cream which has three main active ingredients which are 4% hydroquinone, 0.05% tretinoin, and 0.1% Fluocinolone Acetonide (TRILUMA ingredients). Melasma severity and appearance will also differ according to your skin type. This means that personalized treatment is ideal.

For those of you with darker skin complexions, elevated hormone levels from pregnancy or hormonal birth control, or the love of a good, long summer tan, melasma is likely all too familiar. You’ve dealt with the unappealing dark splotches across your face for long enough to know that their treatment can feel impossible at times. For many, Hyderquin plus cream or Tri-Melasin cream is the best melasma treatment option.

Hydroquinone Safety Tips:

• Use only once at nighttime only
• Use moisturizer twice a day to avoid dryness, redness, irritation
• Use 3-6 months on, and at least 1 month off
• Wear sunscreen during the daytime and reapply sunscreen after every 2 hours

Hyderquin plus cream (15gm) and Tri-Melasin (30gm) are both topical creams specially made to treat melasma. It is recommended for both long and short-term use, and for individuals with mild to severe dark spots. The triple combination formula is extremely beneficial for treating dark spots associated with moderate to severe facial melasma. The three main active ingredients in Hyderquin plus cream and Tri-Melasin cream are 4% hydroquinone, 0.05% tretinoin, and 0.1% Fluocinolone Acetonide (TRILUMA ingredients). Hydroquinone is the top ingredient found in many effective topical preparations and is extremely effective in lightening skin. This active ingredient inhibits melanin production to successfully fade dark spots, freckles, sun damage, melasma, and even acne scars. By combining Hydroquinone with another skincare ingredient Tretinoin, a vitamin A derivative, Hyderquin plus cream and Tri-Melasin cream provides skin lightening effects and anti-aging benefits. Tretinoin 0.05% works by increasing the skin cell turnover rate, which helps exfoliate the skin.

Tretinoin and Azelaic acid are complementary ingredients and can help address similar skin concerns. Azelaic acid is naturally derived from dicarboxylic acid, part of a category that is different from AHAs and BHAs. Azelaic acid is considered a gentle acid that helps reduce the appearance of dark spots caused by acne scars. Azelaic acid also improves the uneven texture of the skin while minimizing the signs of inflammation, and redness.
