Skin Care Review: Eldoquin forte 4% (by ICN)

by beatrix dagtas, Abu Dhabi UAE

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Reduces brown spots. Cream has to be used with an equal amount of Retin A cream

Drawbacks
Product increase the skin photosentivity and needs to be used with a suncreen

Details
Product needs to be prescribed by a doctor as the active ingredients (hydroquinone) destroy the pigment located in the skin. However the product is cheap and give a good result. The treatment requires a bit of time and result will be gradual and visible after a few months (2 to 3 months). I was recommneded to mix an equal amount of Retin A cream with Eldoquin and apply the cream on a dry skin before bed time. No allergic reaction from my part ( a very faint redness where the cream is applied). Despite the retin A cream added to the mixture, I haven't really notice any wrinkles improvements. Has worked better than other products prescribed such as Iklen or Clairial.

Conclusions
Excellent product, very cheap.
