About Depiluk Cream

Depiluk Cream is used to treat melasma and hyperpigmentation. It protects the skin from harmful UV radiation and reduces discoloration. Melasma is a condition in which brown and patchy pigmentation appears on the skin.

Depiluk Cream is a combination medicine containing mulberry extract, tranexamic acid, kojic acid, arbutin, magnesium, and vitamin E. Tranexamic acid reduces pigmentation and protects the skin from UV radiation. Vitamin E and magnesium provide essential nutrients. The mulberry extract reduces wrinkles and prevents premature aging. Kojic acid and arbutin suppress the formation of melanin (skin pigment).

Depiluk Cream should be used as the doctor has advised. Sometimes, Depiluk Cream may cause common side effects such as redness, skin rash and dry skin. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects consistently.

Medicinal Benefits

Depiluk Cream is a combination of five medicines: tranexamic acid, kojic acid, arbutin, magnesium, vitamin E, and mulberry extract. By blocking its parent enzyme, tyrosinase, it suppresses the formation of melanin, which is how it treats pigmentation and melasma. Additionally, Depiluk Cream shields the skin from the sun's damaging UV rays. By avoiding free radical damage to the skin, Depiluk Cream slows down the aging process and reduces the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, it exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities, which improve the complexion and skin's general appearance.
