Introduction
Melapik Ever New is a prescription medication that combines three active ingredients: Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Allantoin. It is commonly used in dermatology for its skin-lightening and rejuvenating properties.
Uses
Melapik Ever New is primarily prescribed for the treatment of skin conditions such as melasma, hyperpigmentation, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by dark patches on the face, particularly on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. Hyperpigmentation refers to the darkening of certain areas of the skin, while post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation occurs after an inflammatory skin condition, such as acne, has healed.
Dosage and Administration
follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist regarding the dosage and administration of Melapik Ever New. Typically, a thin layer of the cream is applied to the affected areas of the skin once daily, preferably in the evening. Gently massage the cream into the skin until it is fully absorbed. Avoid applying the cream to broken, irritated, or sunburned skin.
Mechanism of Action
The active ingredients in Melapik Ever New work in different ways to improve the appearance of the skin. Hydroquinone inhibits the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, thereby lightening dark spots and patches. Tretinoin, a form of vitamin A, promotes the turnover of skin cells and helps to reduce the accumulation of pigmented cells. Allantoin has soothing and moisturizing properties, which help to improve the overall texture and hydration of the skin.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include mild skin irritation, redness, dryness, or peeling. These side effects are usually temporary and may improve with continued use. However, if you experience severe or persistent skin irritation, blistering, or allergic reactions such as itching or swelling, discontinue use and seek medical attention.
