EUKROMA: Topical Depigmenting Cream for Hyperpigmentation Management
EUKROMA 4% CREAM contains Hydroquinone 4% w/w, a topical dermatological depigmenting medicine belonging to the skin pigmentation treatment drug class. It is prescribed for the management of pigmentation-related conditions such as melasma, dark patches, freckles, and hyperpigmentation under dermatologist supervision.
Hydroquinone works by reducing melanin production in the skin through inhibition of pigment-forming pathways. This helps gradually lighten areas of excessive pigmentation and supports a more even skin tone when used as part of a medically guided skincare plan.
EUKROMA 4% CREAM is supplied as 1 tube containing 20g and is intended for external topical application only as directed by a healthcare professional.
