About Epilite Lotion
Epilite Lotion treats melasma (dark brown patch on skin) and hyperpigmentation. It helps clear the complexion, acne scars, and photoaging (premature skin ageing caused by repeated exposure to UV radiation). Hyperpigmentation is a skin condition in which patches of skin become darker in colour than the normal surrounding skin. Melasma is a common skin problem that causes dark, discoloured patches on your skin. Dark spots occur when some skin areas start producing more melanin (a natural pigment that gives colour to eyes, hair and skin), ranging from light to dark brown.
Epilite Lotion contains Hydroquinone (skin lightening or bleaching agent), which decreases the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) responsible for darkening the skin.
Epilite Lotion is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids, lips, mouth, and nose. If the medicine comes in contact with any of these areas, rinse with water immediately. Do not use Epilite Lotion on sunburned, windburned, dry, or irritated skin. Common side effects of Epilite Lotion include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), burning sensation, mild itching, and skin irritation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your physician.
Avoid using Epilite Lotion if allergic to it. Epilite Lotion can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight; hence, always use sunscreen and protective clothing before you step outdoors. Care should be taken while applying Epilite Lotion on sensitive areas, such as the neck. Please limit the use of products that contain large amounts of alcohol (astringents, shaving creams, or after-shave lotions), hair removal products, and products containing lime or spices while using Epilite Lotion. Let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or a breastfeeding mother. Epilite Lotion is not recommended for children below 12 years of age.

Epilite Lotion contains Hydroquinone, a whitening agent that reduces melanin (a chemical that determines the colour of the skin and hair) production, thereby lightening the complexion of the skin.
You are advised to use moisturizer in the morning every day to restore the fat barrier of the skin that protects the skin from damage. Epilite Lotion may make the skin more sensitive to extreme weather conditions such as cold and wind. Therefore, wear protective clothing and use moisturizer as required. However, please consult a physician before using moisturizing lotions or other products with Epilite Lotion.
Epilite Lotion is a natural skin-lightening product that reduces melanin production, improves skin tone, texture, and sensitivity, and reduces skin's uneven colour. Using it for some days lightens the appearance of scars.
No, it is not advised to stop using Epilite Lotion even after your symptoms are relieved. You should complete the full course of treatment. You might see improvement in your symptoms, but the disease might not be cured completely.
Epilite Lotion can make your skin more sensitive to the harmful effects of sunlight. Hence, it is advised to use sunscreen and protective clothing while using Epilite Lotion. It is recommended to avoid tanning booths and sunlamps.
It is not recommended to use Epilite Lotion with benzoyl peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, or any other peroxide products, as it may cause skin staining, which can usually be removed with soap and water. However, please consult a physician before using other medicines with a Epilite Lotion.
Epilite Lotion is generally considered safe for facial use, being specifically formulated to address melasma, hyperpigmentation, and dark spots. For optimal safety, consulting a dermatologist, following instructions, and conducting a patch test are recommended prior to facial application.
No, Epilite Lotion does not permanently lighten the skin. It is designed to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and melasma, resulting in a more even skin tone. However, once you stop using the cream, your skin may gradually return to its original tone.
When using Epilite Lotion, avoid prolonged sun exposure, harsh skin products, exfoliating or scrubbing the treated area, sharing the cream, and applying it to broken or irritated skin. If you're allergic to any ingredients or have sensitive skin, consult a dermatologist before use.
Epilite Lotion should be applied as directed by your dermatologist or according to the product's instructions. Typically, a thin layer of the cream is applied gently to the affected area, once or twice a day. The application frequency and duration may vary depending on the specific skin concern being treated, such as melasma, hyperpigmentation, or dark spots.
Epilite Lotion is generally considered safe for most skin types when used as directed. However, as with any skincare product, some individuals may experience adverse reactions or side effects. It's essential to follow the recommended usage instructions and consult a dermatologist if you have sensitive skin or concerns.
Common side effects of Epilite Lotion include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), burning sensation, mild itching, and skin irritation. However, not everyone who uses Epilite Lotion will experience these side effects. Most of these side effects are temporary and resolve on their own, but if they persist or worsen, consult your physician for guidance.
