A Ret-HC Cream is commonly prescribed by dermatologists for the short-term management of pigmentation disorders.
Active Ingredients
- Hydroquinone 2% w/w
- Tretinoin 0.025% w/w
- Hydrocortisone Acetate 1% w/w
This triple-combination formulation combines a depigmenting agent, a retinoid, and a mild corticosteroid.
How It Works
Hydroquinone reduces melanin production in the skin, helping lighten dark patches and pigmentation.
Tretinoin promotes skin cell turnover, accelerates removal of pigmented skin cells, and improves skin texture.
