Product Details
Hyderquin 4% Cream is a skin-lightening topical treatment primarily used to address hyperpigmentation. Containing 4% hydroquinone, a powerful depigmenting agent, this cream helps reduce dark spots and patches on the skin caused by conditions such as melasma, chloasma, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Regular use of Hyderquin Cream can result in a more even, brighter complexion.
Purposes
Hyderquin 4% is specifically designed to:
- Treat melasma and chloasma, which cause brownish patches on the skin.
- Lighten age spots, freckles, and darkened skin areas caused by sun exposure.
- Address post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation following conditions like acne or eczema.
- Improve overall skin tone and brightness, making the complexion appear more even.
Warnings
- Patch Test: Always perform a patch test before applying Hyderquin Cream to avoid potential allergic reactions.
- Sun Exposure: Hydroquinone can increase skin sensitivity to sunlight. Use sunscreen and wear protective clothing while using this product.
- Pregnancy: Consult a healthcare provider before using if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
- Breastfeeding: It is not confirmed whether hydroquinone passes into breast milk. Speak with your doctor before using while breastfeeding.
Adverse Effects
Common side effects of Hyderquin 4% include mild skin irritation, redness, dryness, and itching. Some individuals may experience stinging or burning at the site of application. Less common but more serious reactions may include severe skin redness, blistering, or blue-black darkening of the skin (ochronosis) with long-term use. Discontinue use if allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing occur, and consult a healthcare provider.
