How it works
Lumadip Cream is a combination of three medicines: Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Allantoin. Hydroquinone is a depigmenting or skin bleaching agent that produces lightening of your skin by decreasing the number of melanocytes present or produced in your skin. Tretinoin is a form of vitamin A that helps the skin to renew itself more quickly. Allantoin is a skin protectant that works as a moisturizer and relieves minor skin irritations.
Quick Tips
You have been prescribed Lumadip Cream to reduce skin pigmentation. Wear long-sleeved clothing, sunglasses, and hat whenever you step outside in the hot sun for better protection. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor. You may also use certain safe cosmetics (after consulting with your doctor) in order to lighten pigmentation. Before using Lumadip Cream, inform your doctor if you have any skin problems or are applying any other medicines to your skin.
