SuperFade 40mL

Description:

SuperFade Face Treatment Cream is a medicated, pharmacy-strength skin treatment to help fade pigmentation, such as brown skin blemishes including freckles, age spots and post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation on the Face. It contains a powerful active ingredient, Hydroquinone (2%), for fighting pigmentation at the source. In addition, it has an applicator nozzle for precision application. You should see effective results in 6 weeks.

Superfade Face Treatment Cream assists in fading brown skin blemishes, including freckles, age spots, melasma and hyperpigmentation.
Brown skin blemishes, freckles, and melasma occur when excessive pigmentation has resulted from the influence of sun exposure, hormonal variation, or skin type.
Superfade Face Treatment Cream and Superfade Treatment Cream for hands and body are the only non-prescription pharmacy medicines in Australia that contain the powerful active ingredient Hydroquinone (2%).

Hydroquinone is the gold standard in pigmentation fading and works by disabling the damaged melanocyte deep in the skin that produces excess melanin, which then forms the brown pigment on the skin's surface.

POST-INFLAMMATORY HYPERPIGMENTATION:

(PIH) occurs after an injury to the skin. It is a discolouration of the skin that follows an inflammatory wound such as a rash, scrape, or pimple. Popping a canker increases the chance of PIH as it increases inflammation. As the skin starts to heal, the skin overproduces melanin, and this excess melanin darkens the skin. Unlike acne scaring, PIH is a type of pigmentation.
SuperFade Face Treatment Cream should be applied to the affected area only as it is specifically formulated for fighting unwanted pigmentation at the source. Results should appear in just six weeks of regular and consistent use.
