This compounded formulation of Hydroquinone 6.25%/Tretinoin 0.025%/Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.01%/Tranexamic Acid 2%/Kojic Acid 4% Topical Gel is a specialized treatment designed for targeted skin care. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and other forms of hyperpigmentation. Each active ingredient plays a crucial role in addressing these skin conditions.

Hydroquinone is a tyrosinase inhibitor that works to reduce the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for the color of the skin. Tretinoin, a retinoid, aids in reducing the appearance of dark spots and improving skin tone. Fluocinolone Acetonide, a corticosteroid, helps to reduce inflammation and irritation, providing relief from discomfort. Tranexamic Acid and Kojic Acid both work to reduce the appearance of dark spots and discoloration, promoting a more even skin tone.

In addition to treating hyperpigmentation, this formulation is also indicated for the treatment of acne. The combination of Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Kojic Acid helps to reduce the appearance of acne scars and discoloration, promoting healthier-looking skin.

It is important to note that this formulation should not be used on broken or irritated skin. Patients with a history of sensitivity to any of the ingredients should use this formulation with caution. Furthermore, due to the photosensitizing nature of Hydroquinone, patients are advised to use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher when using this formulation to protect their skin from sun damage.

As with any medication, it is important to use this formulation as directed by a healthcare professional. If you have any questions or concerns about this formulation or its use, please consult with your healthcare provider.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

This compounded formulation is a topical gel that combines five active ingredients: hydroquinone 6.25%, tretinoin 0.025%, fluocinolone acetonide 0.01%, tranexamic acid 2%, and kojic acid 4%. Each ingredient plays a crucial role in treating various skin conditions, including melasma, acne, and hyperpigmentation.

Hydroquinone is a potent skin-lightening agent that inhibits melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin color. It is commonly used to lighten areas of hyperpigmentation such as melasma, age spots, and freckles.

Tretinoin, a topical retinoid, increases cell turnover and reduces melanin production. It is effective in treating acne and reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Fluocinolone acetonide is a topical corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and redness. It is beneficial in treating various skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.

Tranexamic acid is an antifibrinolytic agent that inhibits the breakdown of fibrin, a protein involved in the clotting process. It is used to reduce the appearance of melasma and other forms of hyperpigmentation.

Kojic acid is a natural skin-lightening agent that inhibits melanin production. Like hydroquinone, it is used to lighten areas of hyperpigmentation such as melasma, age spots, and freckles.

When used in combination, these ingredients work synergistically to reduce the appearance of melasma, acne, and other forms of hyperpigmentation. The gel is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment. It should be applied to the affected area twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its application, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to assist you in understanding and effectively using this product for your skin health.
