Hi, eukroma and revise cream have hydroquinone and tretinoin respectively both of which are to be used for a short duration of time for specific indications. The combination of eukroma and revise will be too harsh on facial skin so is not advisable. Reverse pigmentation and skin sensitivity can be the potential side effects if not properly used.

You are suffering from a condition called as exogenous ochronosis. It resluts due to prolonged use of hydroquinone. Hydroquinone should never be used for such prolonged periods. Treatment isa bit difficult. Tretinoin/ adapalene gel, CO2 lasers might help. Treatment will take time, probably a couple of months.

All such cream have same side effects.
The day you will stop using them the skin becomes more dark and damaged.
Avoid it.
Work for healthy skin instead of fair skin.

Hello. Melrio/ triglow contains same compositions as lumaglow .but as these creams contain steroid (flucinolone) so on long term use (even if you use more then 1 month without proper indication )it can damage your facial skin. Avoid strict photo exposure when you use such cream. Visit nearest dermatolgist. Thanks.
