What is Melalite Forte Cream?
Melalite Forte Cream is a skin-lightening treatment used primarily for melasma and hyperpigmentation. It works by reducing melanin (the pigment responsible for dark spots) in the skin, leading to a more even skin tone.
Uses of Melalite Forte Cream
-
Melasma (dark patches on the face, often due to hormonal changes)
-
Hyperpigmentation (dark spots caused by sun exposure, acne scars, or aging)
How Does It Work?
Melalite Forte Cream contains hydroquinone (a depigmenting agent) that inhibits melanin production, gradually lightening dark patches. It provides reversible depigmentation, meaning the effect lasts only as long as the treatment is continued.
How to Use Melalite Forte Cream
-
For external use only.
-
Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin on affected areas.
-
Wash hands before and after application (unless treating hands).
-
Start with a patch test (apply to a small area first) to check for allergic reactions.
-
Use as directed by a doctor—usually once or twice daily.
-
Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary:
✔ Skin redness (erythema)
✔ Dryness or peeling
✔ Burning or stinging sensation
✔ Itching or irritation
If severe irritation, swelling, or allergic reactions occur, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
Safety & Precautions
-
Pregnancy: Not recommended unless prescribed by a doctor (potential risks to the fetus).
-
Breastfeeding: Likely safe, but consult a doctor before use.
-
Sun Exposure: Avoid excessive sun exposure—use sunscreen (SPF 30+) to prevent further pigmentation.
-
Duration of Use: Do not use for more than 2 months continuously without medical advice.
What If I Miss a Dose?
-
If you forget to apply it, do so as soon as you remember.
-
If it’s almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one.
-
Do not double the dose.
