Hydroquinone cream is a topical medication used to lighten areas of skin that have become darkened due to hyperpigmentation. It works by reducing the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color. Hydroquinone is commonly used to treat conditions like melasma, freckles, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. While generally effective, it can cause side effects like skin irritation and, in rare cases, ochronosis (a bluish-black discoloration of the skin).
