How
Hydroquinone Even Tone Cream
works:
What to expect
Cells in the skin known as melanocytes produce a pigment called melanin. As we age, the outer layer of our skin thins and melanocytes increase in size, which may lead to dark spots and dark patches on sun-exposed areas of the body.
Hydroquinone decreases the melanin production of melanocyte cells and decreases the number of melanocytes, helping to lighten and fade the appearance of dark spots and patches.
