Benefits
Hydroquinone softened wrinkles, and reduced the visibility of sun spots.

Drawbacks
Hydroquinone causes the skin to become red, irritated and sensitive.

Details
In preparation for job interviews, I included rejuvenating the condition of my facial skin to give myself a fresh, youthful appearance. Several of the estheticians I interviewed tried to sell me “the full boat” which included oxygenation, microdermabrasion, glycolic peel etc. etc. The total cost of treatment for most of these procedures was almost $1000. Feeling there had to be a less expensive alternative, I went to one last clinic hoping to hear a different story (and price). I ended up at Allure Skin Care in San Diego where they told me all I needed was a few glycolic peels and a 2 month regimen of Hydroquinone cream at night before I went to bed. Long story short, the combination of the peels and 2 months of using the Hydroquinone every night worked great. My sun spotting was reduced to a level I hadn’t seen in 10 or 15 years. It also softened the wrinkles on my forehead. It did however make some of the scars on my face a little more pronounced (from 20 years of extreme sports). I highly recommend Hydroquinone for the reduction of sun spotting but I would recommend buying it from a qualified esthetician who can explain the application and effects.

Conclusions
Very effective for reducing sun spots and hyper melanin concentrations on the face.
