Triluma Cream

Composition

Hydroquinone (4% w/w) + Tretinoin (0.05% w/w) + Fluocinolone acetonide (0.01% w/w)

Uses of Triluma Cream

Treatment of melasma (facial hyperpigmentation) and short-term management of moderate to severe hyperpigmentation such as dark patches due to sun exposure; used with sun protection measures.

• •Lightens melasma patches
• •Reduces hyperpigmentation and uneven tone
• •Improves skin turnover and texture
• •Decreases inflammation and irritation associated with depigmenting therapy

How it works

Hydroquinone reduces melanin formation by inhibiting tyrosinase, helping lighten dark patches. Tretinoin increases skin cell turnover and improves penetration of hydroquinone. Fluocinolone (a mild corticosteroid) reduces inflammation and irritation caused by the other ingredients.

Directions for use

For external use only. Apply a thin film to the affected area once daily at night (usually for up to 8 weeks or as directed by a dermatologist). Cleanse and dry skin before application; avoid eyes, mouth, and broken skin. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen and protective clothing during daytime; avoid excessive sun/UV exposure.
