Triluma Cream

Product Introduction

Triluma Cream is a prescription-only dermatological formulation that combines three active ingredients—Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Fluocinolone acetonide—to effectively treat melasma, a common skin condition characterized by dark, discolored patches on the skin. It helps in skin lightening, reducing pigmentation, and promoting faster skin renewal, while also providing relief from associated redness, inflammation, and itching.

This cream is particularly effective in managing melasma caused by hormonal changes during pregnancy, menopause, or long-term sun exposure. By targeting multiple pathways involved in pigmentation and inflammation, Triluma Cream works synergistically to restore a more even, radiant, and smooth skin tone.

Triluma Cream is intended for external use only and should be applied in the dose and duration prescribed by your dermatologist. Always wash and dry the affected area before applying the cream. It is important not to exceed the recommended dosage to avoid side effects such as skin thinning or irritation.

Benefits of Triluma Cream

In Melasma:
Triluma Cream helps fade dark patches and pigmentation by reducing the production of melanin, the natural pigment responsible for skin color. It lightens existing dark spots and prevents the formation of new ones, helping to restore your skin’s natural tone and texture.

The combination of ingredients ensures multi-action benefits:

Hydroquinone reduces melanin formation for lighter skin.

Tretinoin increases cell turnover, exfoliating dull and pigmented skin layers.

Fluocinolone acetonide controls inflammation and soothes redness or irritation.

With consistent use as prescribed, Triluma Cream improves overall skin appearance, boosts confidence, and enhances complexion clarity.

Side Effects of Triluma Cream

Most side effects are mild and temporary, disappearing as the skin adjusts to the medication. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly.

Itching or irritation

Acne or breakout

Dryness in the mouth

How to Use Triluma Cream

This medicine is for external use only.

Clean and gently dry the affected area before application.

Apply a thin layer evenly over the affected skin, avoiding contact with eyes, nose, and mouth.

How Triluma Cream Works

Triluma Cream combines three active agents that work together to treat melasma effectively:

Hydroquinone (2%) – A skin-lightening agent that inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. It helps reduce pigmentation and lighten dark spots.

Tretinoin (0.05%) – A derivative of Vitamin A (retinoid) that increases the turnover of skin cells, promoting the shedding of pigmented cells and stimulating the growth of new, healthier skin.

Fluocinolone acetonide (0.01%) – A mild corticosteroid that reduces redness, swelling, and irritation associated with melasma, ensuring better tolerance to the other active agents.

Together, these components target pigmentation, inflammation, and skin cell regeneration—providing comprehensive treatment for melasma.
