Medicinal Benefits of Ultrabrite Cream

HYDROQUINONE+MOMETASONE+TRETINOIN is a combination of three drugs, namely: Hydroquinone, Mometasone and Tretinoin. Hydroquinone belongs to the class of skin lightening agents that works by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Mometasone is a corticosteroid that acts inside skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such chemicals are released normally. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (man-made vitamin A) that works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps in natural exfoliation of skin’s outer layers. Also, tretinoin loosens the cells in the skin’s surface and unblocks pores by reducing the production of oil in the skin. Thereby, decreases pimples, whiteheads and blackheads.
