Comparison
Vuret Hyperpigmentation Cream vs Melasma Cream
The short answer
Vuret Hyperpigmentation Cream (hydroquinone 6%, tretinoin 0.05%, kojic acid 4%, niacinamide 4%) targets dark spots and acne marks, while Vuret Melasma Cream (hydroquinone 8%, tretinoin 0.05%, hydrocortisone 1%, kojic acid 6%) targets melasma patches and adds a mild steroid to reduce irritation. Both are used in cycles with daily sunscreen.

Bottom line
Choose based on the diagnosis, not the strength: spots and post-acne marks fit the Hyperpigmentation Cream; symmetrical facial patches tied to sun or hormones point to melasma. The physician confirms which applies.
