I have a hydroquinone 4 percent is there anything stronger?
of course hydroquinone on prescription can be bought upto 12 %. Infact brand MD products in USA have this percentage. However dont blindly believe that higher the strength, it will erase the melasma faster.
We have been compounding Hydroquinones from our office in as much as 8 percent. I often combine it with Retin-A cream to best treat facial melasma. Our patients do best when these products are combined with chemical peels to remove dark spots and melasma. Please consult a board certified dermatologist who is an expert in chemical peels and melasma. Best, Dr. Green
