Elosone-HT cream composition combines three active ingredients: hydroquinone, mometasone, and tretinoin.
Hydroquinone is a skin-lightening agent that works by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its colour. It is particularly effective in treating hyperpigmentation and melasma, which cause dark patches on the skin. Hydroquinone blocks the enzyme tyrosinase, which is responsible for melanin production. It reduces the appearance of dark spots on the skin, making the skin appear brighter and more even-toned.
Mometasone is a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and itching of the skin. It works by reducing the production of inflammatory chemicals in the body, thereby reducing inflammation and itching. Mometasone is particularly effective in treating dermatitis and eczema, characterised by redness, swelling, and skin itching.
Tretinoin is a vitamin A used to treat acne and other skin conditions. It works by speeding up the skin cell turnover process, which helps to unclog pores and reduce the formation of acne. Tretinoin also helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production in the skin.
