EpiQuin
Micro is a topical 4% hydroquinone product indicated for the treatment
of hyperpigmentation, a condition that results in heavily pigmented
or dark areas of the skin.
EpiQuin Micro is the only prescription hydroquinone
product available with Microsponge technology, a delivery technology
supplied by Cardinal Health. Microsponges are porous microscopic
particles loaded with active ingredients. Following application,
the Microsponges remain on the surface of the skin and gradually
release the active ingredient, prolonging exposure to the treatment
while minimizing skin irritation. Studies with Microsponge-entrapped
products known to cause skin irritation, such as benzoyl peroxide
and hydroquinone, have demonstrated efficacy with minimal skin
irritation.
EpiQuin
Micro is the only hydroquinone 4% formulated with Microsponge technology
and retinol. The retinol provides improvement in appearance of fine
lines and wrinkles while enhancing the skin's appearance. Antioxidants
vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) and vitamin C (ascorbic acid) help
protect against free-radical damage.
EpiQuin Micro is a safe, steroid-free formulation
that can be used for both acute and maintenance therapy without the
potential harmful side effects of long term steroid use. EpiQuin
Micro should be tested for skin sensitivity prior to use.
