  1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer focused questions regarding your skin type, melasma history, known allergies, and general medical background.
  2. Upload clear skin photographs: Provide high-resolution, well-lit photos of the affected facial areas so the doctor can evaluate pigment pattern and skin barrier integrity.
  3. Doctor review within 24 hours: An EU-licensed physician reviews your questionnaire and clinical images.
  4. Receive your REMPE prescription: If treatment is deemed appropriate, download the official REMPE PDF containing a central registry QR code directly from your account.

What Hydroquinone actually does

Hydroquinone acts primarily as a competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase, the rate-limiting enzyme in melanin biosynthesis. By blocking the conversion of dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to melanin, it reduces pigment production in hyperactive melanocytes.

Doctors may prescribe Hydroquinone 4% cream, Hydroquinone 4% gel, or a compounded melasma formula containing hydroquinone 4%, tretinoin 0.025%, kojic acid 2%, and niacinamide 4%. Formulations are typically used nightly in defined cycles of 8 to 12 weeks to prevent melanocyte exhaustion.

Broad-spectrum SPF 50+ photoprotection every single day is non-negotiable. Melasma is heavily stimulated by ultraviolet and visible light, meaning depigmenting agents will fail without disciplined sun avoidance. Tinted mineral sunscreens containing iron oxides offer critical additional protection against visible light.

Melasma is a chronic condition that frequently relapses after sun exposure; setting realistic expectations and maintaining UV protection is essential for long-term control.

Formulation Key Active Ingredients Standard Application
Hydroquinone 4% Cream / Gel Hydroquinone 4% Apply a thin layer at night to pigmented areas for 8–12 weeks
Compounded Melasma Formula Hydroquinone 4% + Tretinoin 0.025% + Kojic Acid 2% + Niacinamide 4% Nightly application to enhance cellular turnover and reduce pigment transfer
Daily Photoprotection Broad-Spectrum SPF 50+ (with Iron Oxides) Every morning and reapplied every 2 hours during daylight exposure

Side effects and when to stop

Initial treatment frequently causes mild localized erythema, dryness, and transient skin peeling. These symptoms typically resolve as the epidermal barrier acclimates to cellular turnover.

You should discontinue application and consult your doctor if you experience intense burning, swelling, or severe dermatitis. Continuous, uninterrupted use over many months must be avoided to prevent exogenous ochronosis, a rare paradoxical darkening of the dermis.
