A RET HC Cream (Hydroquinone 2% + Tretinoin 0.05% + Hydrocortisone Acetate 1%)

A RET HC Cream is a combination of Hydrocortisone Acetate 1% (a corticosteroid), hydroquinone 2% (a melanin synthesis inhibitor), and tretinoin 0.05% (a retinoid) that is indicated for the short-term treatment of mild to moderate melasma of the face. Also helps with hyperpigmentation or dark spots

• Hydrocortisone Acetate 1% is a mild corticosteroid that reduces inflammation.
• Hydroquinone 2% is a depigmenting agent that interrupts the formation and synthesis of melanin to help lighten the skin.
• Tretinoin 0.05% works by increasing the skin cell turnover rate, which helps exfoliate the skin.

A RET HC Cream should always be used in conjunction with sun-avoidance measures, like using sunscreens and wearing protective clothing.
