Melasma Cream is a topical medication used for the treatment of melasma, a skin condition characterized by dark patches or discoloration on the face. It contains fluocinolone acetonide, a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation and hyperpigmentation in the skin.
Composition:
- Active Ingredient: Fluocinolone Acetonide
- Inactive Ingredients: The cream may contain other components such as emollients, preservatives, and stabilizers.
Uses:
- Melasma Treatment: Melasma Cream is indicated for the treatment of melasma, also known as chloasma or “mask of pregnancy,” which causes dark patches on the face, particularly on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip.
- Hyperpigmentation: It can also be used to treat other forms of hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation.
Dosage and Administration:
- Apply a thin layer of Melasma Cream to the affected areas of the skin, usually once daily or as directed by a healthcare professional.
- Gently massage the cream into the skin until it is absorbed.
- Avoid applying the cream to broken or irritated skin unless directed by a physician.
- It is important to use Melasma Cream regularly and consistently to achieve the best results.
Precautions:
- Melasma Cream should not be used on the face for prolonged periods or without medical supervision, as long-term use of corticosteroids can lead to skin thinning, stretch marks, and other adverse effects.
- Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation or allergic reactions occur.
- Sun Protection: Patients using Melasma Cream should also use sun protection measures such as wearing sunscreen, protective clothing, and avoiding sun exposure, as sunlight can worsen melasma.
Side Effects:
- Common side effects of Melasma Cream may include mild irritation, burning, itching, or redness at the application site.
- Prolonged or excessive use of corticosteroids may cause skin thinning, changes in skin color, or increased hair growth.
Storage:
- Store Melasma Cream at room temperature (20°C to 25°C) away from heat and moisture.
- Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use and out of reach of children.
