Melapik Hq Cream 20Gm

Melapik-HQ Cream is used in adults to gradually lighten dark, discoloured patches on the skin caused by conditions such as melasma, freckles, sun exposure, and inflammation, helping even out overall skin tone.

Uses of Melapik-HQ Cream are:

• Melasma: Gradually lightens dark, discoloured patches on the face.
• Freckles: Reduces small brown spots on the skin often caused by sun exposure.
• Solar Lentigines: Helps lighten darkened spots that appear on sun-exposed areas of skin.
• Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: Helps fade skin darkening that follows an injury or skin disorder.

Here's how you can use Melapik-HQ Cream:

• Always perform a patch test before starting regular use. If severe irritation occurs, discontinue use.

• Apply a thin layer of the cream to clean, and dry, affected areas of your skin as directed by your doctor.

• Massage it well until fully absorbed and then wash your hands thoroughly.

• Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth and other mucous membranes.

For specific advice related to your condition, consult your doctor.

Melapik-HQ Cream is applied topically.

Melapik-HQ Cream contains hydroquinone (4%), which acts on your body as follows:

• Interferes with Melanin Production: Hydroquinone works by blocking specific enzymes in your body that are crucial for melanin synthesis.

• Decreases Melanin Concentration: By interfering with these enzymes, hydroquinone helps reduce the formation and increase the degradation of melanosomes (structures containing melanin) in melanocytes (cells producing pigment). This action leads to a gradual lightening of darkened skin patches over time with consistent application.

• Keep Melapik-HQ Cream in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays below 25°C.

• Protect the cream from direct light and moisture.

• Ensure the tube is always tightly closed after use.

• Keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Do not freeze.

• Limit your exposure to the sun as much as possible. This helps manage conditions like melasma, freckles, and solar lentigines for which Melapik-HQ Cream is prescribed. If you must be outdoors, wear protective clothing and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.

• Try to maintain a skin-friendly diet rich in antioxidants such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Antioxidants help combat free radicals that can cause hyperpigmentation.
