How Melarid Cream works:

Melasma, characterized by dark patches on the skin, responds to Melarid Cream, a triple-action formula. Its components—hydroquinone, mometasone, and tretinoin—work synergistically. Hydroquinone, a depigmenting agent, lessens melanin production, the source of skin discoloration, with effects that are temporary. Mometasone, a corticosteroid, counteracts inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandins, substances responsible for redness, swelling, and itching. Tretinoin, a retinoid (vitamin A derivative), accelerates skin cell turnover for improved texture and tone.
