How Melacare Forte Cream works:

Melasma (skin discoloration) is effectively addressed by Melacare Forte Cream, a triple-action formulation combining hydroquinone, mometasone, and tretinoin. Hydroquinone, a depigmenting agent, lessens melanin production, thereby reducing skin darkening; this effect is temporary. Mometasone, a corticosteroid, inhibits inflammatory prostaglandins, alleviating redness, swelling, and itching. Finally, tretinoin, a retinoid (vitamin A derivative), accelerates skin cell turnover for improved skin renewal.
