Melloderm Hydroquinone 4% Cream (7g) – Targeted Treatment for Hyperpigmentation
Product Description
Melloderm Hydroquinone 4% Cream (7g) is a topical skin treatment used to help reduce certain types of hyperpigmentation, including dark spots and uneven areas of skin pigmentation. Its active ingredient, hydroquinone 4%, works by inhibiting tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production. Melanin is the natural pigment responsible for skin color.
When prescribed for an appropriate skin condition, Melloderm may help gradually lighten selected areas of discoloration and improve the appearance of an uneven skin tone. Results vary depending on the cause and severity of pigmentation, skin characteristics, and treatment consistency.
Common Uses
Melloderm Hydroquinone 4% Cream may be prescribed for certain pigmentation concerns, including:
Melasma: Brown or gray-brown patches associated with hormonal and other contributing factors.
Sunspots: Darkened areas associated with prolonged or repeated sun exposure.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: Dark marks that remain after acne or other skin inflammation.
Age spots: Certain localized areas of increased pigmentation.
Uneven skin pigmentation: Selected areas of discoloration diagnosed as suitable for hydroquinone treatment.
Not every dark spot is suitable for treatment with hydroquinone. A healthcare professional can help determine the cause of the discoloration and whether this product is appropriate.

How to Use
Clean and gently dry the affected skin before application.
Follow your doctor's instructions regarding the amount, frequency, and duration of use.
Apply a thin layer only to the prescribed areas, avoiding the eyes, lips, mucous membranes, and unaffected skin.
Wash your hands after application unless your hands are the treatment area.
Use broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day and limit sun exposure to help prevent further pigmentation.

A small-area sensitivity test may be advisable before regular use, following a healthcare professional's guidance.

Do not use near the eyes or on other sensitive areas unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.
Stop using the cream and seek medical advice if severe irritation, swelling, blistering, or significant skin discoloration occurs.
