hydroquinone cream results - #12590

Aasha

I am trying to figure out if using hydroquinone cream results are worth it. Last summer, I had this horrible sunburn while on vacation, and it left dark spots on my face that seem to make everything worse. My friend recommended hydroquinone cream since she had great results after using it for her dark spots. I went to the dermatologist, and they prescribed me a 4% hydroquinone cream, but I'm honestly a bit nervous about using it. I heard some people mention it could irritate your skin or that the hydroquinone cream results aren't as good as they expected. It’s been a couple of weeks, and the spots don’t seem to lighten up much, like they said they would. I’ve read some mixed reviews online too, like some people see amazing hydroquinone cream results, while others get no change and feel like it was a waste of time. I’m unsure if I should stick with it longer or what… has anyone else experienced this? How long did it take for you to notice the hydroquinone cream results, or should I be looking for alternatives? I'm kind of new to all these skincare treatments and honestly, a bit scared of side effects. Any tips would really help!
