you will have to go to your derm to get them to prescribe that or if you are in the usa you can go to a compounding chemist and they will be able to help you

hi long

you can go to any black (african american) hair/cosmetic store and look for a cream called clear liss or fair and white, these creams like i said befor are usually smuggled from west africa and the lables say they contain 2% but in actuality the contain anywhere from 10-20% HQ. alternativly you can try mono but it makes your skin white and its permanent.

Lighterrrr, I was wondering did you read that information or did you see that on the interenet? The reason I ask it because If its these producsts even on the interent its available? My black ahir stores down here are crappy and dont have any good products like that so do you think its 10-20% hq on the internet too?

Actually if you wanna know the exact hydroquioine in these products check out this link

Toxic Cosmetic Products in Ghana

Wht they did is checked the hydroquinone that is actually in these products compared to the label (i.e 2%)

longtime what a great link! thanks

2% HQ is not going to work on hyperpigmentation unless you are happy to wait 3 years for it to go
if you have used 2% and its gone your hyperpigmentation clearly couldnt have been that bad i use 4% and its still there lol!

the kligmans formula is also in 5% HQ so i dont know why people act like if you are going to use that percent you will die or something
the kligmans formula was made by the worlds most famous dermatologist!

as long as you arent using these products for years thats where the research was done the people who had used the HQ for 10-40 years where the people with the severe problems we often hear about

hi guys

longtime thanks for the link, like i said in my prior post they do lie about the percentages and thats why the products get seized all the time, but some products do manage to make it through customs, i have used clear liss with good results, but i wanted something permanent and thats why i am on mono.

Thanks Longtime 7 for this information! I have been using SilvoCliar for 1 1/2 weeks now and have yet to see results. Today, I noticed my legs were shining, more than usual, but that's about it.

Also, I have been using "True n Tone" soap for the same amount of time. The results were great! However, lately I have noticed my skin looks very dry and wrinkled. It's extremely sore around my nose, eyes, and jaw line area.

I can only anticipate its not too late to stop........wondering....
