How Melacare Forte Cream works:

Melacare Forte Cream combines hydroquinone, mometasone furoate, and tretinoin to effectively manage melasma, characterized by hyperpigmentation. Hydroquinone, a depigmenting agent, diminishes melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin darkening; this effect is temporary. Mometasone furoate, a corticosteroid, counteracts inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, thus reducing redness, swelling, and itching. Tretinoin, a retinoid (vitamin A derivative), accelerates skin cell turnover, promoting faster renewal.
