About Myfair Cream

Myfair Cream is used to treat melasma (dark brown patch on skin). Melasma, also known as chloasma or mask of pregnancy is a common skin condition that causes brown patches on the face. It is more common in women than in men. The discoloured (grey-brown) patches occur mostly on the forehead, chin, nose, and cheeks.

Myfair Cream contains three medicines, namely: Hydroquinone (skin lightening or bleaching agent), Mometasone (corticosteroid), and Tretinoin (a form of Vitamin A or retinoids). Hydroquinone belongs to the class of skin-lightening agents that work by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Mometasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids that work by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (man-made vitamin A) that works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps in the natural exfoliation of the skin’s outer layers.

Myfair Cream is only for external use. Use Myfair Cream as prescribed. Avoid contact of Myfair Cream with nose, mouth, eyes, ears, or vagina. Do not apply on a cut, open wound, or burned skin area. In case Myfair Cream comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Some people may experience skin pain, acne, redness, irritation, burning, itching, or stinging sensation of the skin. Most of these side effects of Myfair Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Myfair Cream or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant, a nursing mother, or planning for pregnancy, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Myfair Cream. Myfair Cream is not recommended for children below 12 years of age. Do not apply Myfair Cream on ulcerated skin or wounds. Avoid sun exposure while using Myfair Cream as it may make the skin more sensitive to sunlight and cause sunburn. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen while going out to protect your skin from sunburn. Do not cover or wrap the treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor. Avoid smoking or going near naked flames as the fabric (bedding, clothing, dressings) that is in contact with Myfair Cream catches fire and burns easily. If you have a sulfite allergy, asthma, rosacea (redness and often red, small, pus-filled bumps on the face), acne, skin thinning, perioral dermatitis (redness and swelling of the skin around the mouth), genital itching, chickenpox, diabetes, cold sores, ulcerated skin, warts, shingles (a viral infection causing painful rash), eczema (itchy, swelling of the skin) or any other skin condition, inform your doctor before taking Myfair Cream.

Uses of Myfair Cream

Myfair Cream is used in the treatment of Melasma. The detailed uses of Myfair Cream are as follows:
•Skin Brightening: Myfair Cream is designed to enhance skin radiance and promote an even complexion by addressing dullness and boosting brightness. Its formulation helps achieve a luminous and glowing appearance.
•Moisturization: The Myfair Cream provides essential hydration, preventing dryness and keeping the skin soft and supple. This ensures smoother skin and supports overall skin health.
•Hyperpigmentation Treatment: Regular use may help reduce dark spots and uneven pigmentation caused by factors like sun exposure or hormonal changes, resulting in a more uniform skin tone.
•Anti-Aging Benefits: Certain ingredients in the Myfair Cream aim to minimize the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, promoting a youthful and firm appearance by supporting skin elasticity.
•Protection Against Environmental Damage: Additionally, some variants include antioxidants that shield the skin from environmental stressors such as pollution and UV rays, helping to maintain its vitality and health.

Directions for Use

Myfair Cream is only for external use. Wash the face with mild soap and pat the skin dry. Take a small amount of Myfair Cream on a fingertip and apply on the clean and dry affected area one time a day at night or as advised by your doctor. Avoid contact of Myfair Cream with nose, mouth, eyes, ears or vagina. In case Myfair Cream comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly.

Key Benefits

Myfair Cream is a combination of three drugs: Hydroquinone, Mometasone, and Tretinoin. Hydroquinone belongs to the class of skin-lightening agents that work by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Mometasone is a corticosteroid that acts inside skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such chemicals are released normally. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (man-made vitamin A) that works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps in the natural exfoliation of the skin’s outer layers. Also, tretinoin loosens the cells on the skin’s surface and unblocks pores by reducing the production of oil in the skin. Thus, it decreases pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads.
