Side effects

Bleaching cream from pigmented spots have not only positive moments of skin regeneration and complete elimination of pigmentation, but also can have negative side effects such as 

• Irritation
• Alegria
• Photosensitivity
• Other serious consequences that cause serious complications.

Virtually all bleaching agents have hydroquinone in their composition. This is a fairly popular and effective component that is used in almost all whitening creams. In some cases, according to the prescription of a dermatologist, you can buy a bleaching agent with an increased concentration of up to 4%, with an allowable 2%. But caution is needed here, since the use of such a cream can cause slight tingling, redness, burning. The risk of such manifestations increases if the cream is applied to the already burnt, dry, cracked skin. In this case, there may be not only irritation, but also a progressive spread of the infection. Before you begin the process of whitening the skin, always consult a doctor. Most experts do not recommend the use of bleaching agents containing hydroquinone for more than two years.

Some bleaching cream from pigmented spots in its composition have mercury. In many civilized countries, the use of this component is strictly prohibited in bleaching agents, however, in cosmetics produced in Asian countries this is natural. Often, the bleaching of the face ends with poisoning with mercury vapor. The consequences can be very different. These are serious injuries to the psyche, nervous system, kidney function, but pregnant women are particularly at risk, since this can lead to fetal developmental pathology.

The bleaching creams contain tretinoin, with which other components of the cream are easily absorbed into the cells, having a beneficial effect on the bleaching process. Bleaching cream with tretinoin can cause severe skin irritation, there are cases when it ends with contact dermatitis.

Whitening creams from pigmented spots are effective enough, they help many women significantly brighten dark spots, get rid of freckles and other unpleasant flaws, but we must always remember that these wonderful remedies can have negative consequences.

Overdose

Usually, if there is no expected effect after using the cosmetic, we immediately look for the culprit. The choice falls on the manufacturer of the drug. This is the wrong version. In fact, before you start using a cosmetic remedy, you need to carefully study the drug's instructions, and only after that start using it.

Before buying a whitening cream, it is very important to pay attention to the packaging. It is very convenient to use the cream in the package with a dispenser. This makes it possible to extract a sufficient amount of cream. To prevent an overdose, the bleaching cream from the pigment spots should be applied in a thin layer. Excess amount of cream adversely affects the recovery process, and can cause irreversible effects.

It should also be noted that most bleaching creams contain hydroquinone. This is a toxic drug, so manufacturers try to use its concentration to the minimum. Hydroquinone quickly penetrates the skin and is absorbed into the blood. Therefore, an overdose of a cream containing hydroquinone is not allowed. Otherwise, there may be complications such as ochronic disease.

Interactions with other drugs

Whitening creams from pigmented spots do not interact with other nutritional, moisturizing, day and night creams. Moreover, the complex use of whitening and sunscreen cream with SPF 25 protection factor is recommended.

The use of bleaching cream from pigmented spots is well combined with other cosmetic procedures that promote skin whitening, as well as using alternative medicine recipes.

However, cosmetologists do not recommend using several bleaching creams from different manufacturers at the same time. With this interaction, the most unpleasant consequences, such as allergy or irritation, can occur.

As a rule, bleaching cream from pigmented spots should not be stored in the bathroom, because there are high humidity and changes in air temperature. Therefore, it is recommended to store in a dark cool place. The most optimal option for storing the cream is the shelf in the locker, closed from sunlight. In summer, the cream can be stored on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, however, do not forget that low temperatures adversely affect the properties of the cream.

The components of the whitening cream are effective enough. During the use of the cream under the influence of high or low temperatures, as well as the ingress of bacteria and excess oxygen into the cream, its elements are destroyed. Therefore, to ensure that the cream does not cause damage to health and does not deteriorate, observe the correct storage conditions.

• After applying the product, tightly close the tube or jar with cream.
• Try to buy a cream in a dark package or with a dispenser.
• Apply the whitening cream only with clean hands to avoid the multiplication of bacteria. It is recommended to use cleaned applicators or sponges.

Shelf life

• Conditions of storage and use.
• Presence of preservatives, their concentration, variety and quality.
• Origin, quality of raw materials and processing. Synthetic components that are contained in the cream, under different conditions, change their structure.

To determine the expiration date of the drug, it is necessary to study its composition. For example, if it contains hydroquinone, the period of validity and storage should not exceed 2 months. Extend the expiration date can be hermetic packaging with a dispenser, which you only need to store in the refrigerator.
