HOW EUKROMA 2% CREAM WORKS
EUKROMA 2% CREAM is used as a de-pigmentation agent on the skin to suppress the activity of cells called melanocytes. Melanocytes are responsible for producing melanin, which leads to the darkening of the skin. EUKROMA 2% CREAM suppresses the overactivity of these cells by blocking the melanin production cycle, thus leads to fading of the brownish spots.
