Hydroquinone

Buy Hydroquinone Online from Licensed Canadian Pharmacies

Hydroquinone 4% is a prescription-strength skin-lightening cream used to reduce dark spots such as melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (acne marks), sunspots, and freckles. It works by slowing melanin production in the skin, helping discoloration fade with consistent use. Results are typically seen in 8 to 12 weeks with diligent sun protection.

Apply the medication only to affected areas and avoid use on broken or irritated skin. Hydroquinone 4% is supplied in 30 g tubes for topical use. You can order Hydroquinone online from licensed Canadian pharmacies for delivery to the USA. Use exactly as directed by your dermatologist and combine with daily broad-spectrum sunscreen for best results.

1. Melasma (hormonal or sun-induced)
2. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (for example, after acne)
3. Solar lentigines (sunspots) and freckles

Dosage of Hydroquinone for Melasma, Freckles, & Other Hyperpigmentation Disorders

• Adults & children ≥12 years: Apply a thin layer twice daily (morning and bedtime) to affected areas.
• Duration: If no improvement after 2 months, discontinue.
