Medicine Description unitone-4 15 ML
UNITONE 4 is a medication designed to address skin pigmentation issues through a unique blend of active ingredients. The primary components work synergistically to inhibit melanin production and promote skin clarity. Licorice extract contains glabridin, which inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase, crucial for melanin synthesis. Ascorbic acid, a potent antioxidant, also contributes by disrupting the oxidation process involved in melanin formation while promoting overall skin health. α-Arbutin acts similarly to hydroquinone but is less irritating, effectively diminishing pigmentation by preventing the conversion of tyrosine to melanin. Lastly, citric acid serves as a gentle exfoliant, facilitating the removal of dead skin cells and pre-existing melanin on the skin surface, resulting in a more luminous and even skin tone.
