Description
Uses:
Melanorm-MS Cream is prescribed for:
-
Melasma and facial hyperpigmentation
-
Dark spots caused by sun exposure or acne
-
Post-inflammatory pigmentation
-
Improving overall skin tone and texture
How It Works:
-
Hydroquinone (2%): Inhibits melanin production to lighten dark patches.
-
Mometasone (0.1%): A corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness, and irritation.
-
Tretinoin (0.025%): A retinoid that accelerates skin cell turnover, promoting skin renewal and enhancing penetration of other ingredients.
The combination provides faster and more effective pigmentation reduction compared to single-agent therapy.
