20% Hydroquinone is more likely over kill. Hydroquinone suppresses melanocytes and you should not be using more than 4-7% RX with a tretinoin to drive it in at night; use alone during the day. The most important thing you MUST do is wear a physical sun block before you walk out the door every day because UV rays, not just the sun, will activate your melanycytes (melanin). You must be diligent and you can only used Rx strength Hydroquinone fore no more than 12 weeks max. You must continue another 12 weeks with a professional/medical grade Vitamin C - percentage depends on your skin type. Vit C also suppresses melanocytes. Other melanocyte suppressors include Kojic Acid, Arbutin, Bearberry.
We use "Obagi" and it is 4% Also along with Rx RetinA. Many patients do well including microdermabrasion, with aluminum oxide crystals to improve their skin.
