I recently purchased Triluma, it has Hydroquinone 4%, Tretinoin 0.05% and Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.01%. I am only using it to bleach my skin because whiter = better. Right now I have a Mediterranean + Yellow sort of skin color (Around Fitzpatrick 3 to 4, leaning towards 3 between the two) and am trying to bleach it. I'm just worried if I will end up causing damage to myself, as apparently this cream is considered nuclear.
My Plan of using this is (Through out, i will be applying SPF 50 in the morning everyday. Of course I shall continue to use SPF even after I'm done with TRILUMA) :
For first 2 months: Use TRILUIMA daily by applying it on full face, I guess except for eyelids? using a pea sized amount and all that I'm aware.
3rd month- 1st and 2nd week: Alternate days for TRILUMA. No actives on off days.
3rd month- 3rd and 4th week: drop frequency to 2 times a week
And after these 3 months I will use either cysteamine or azelaic acid to maintain the results and prevent rebound hyperpigmentation, maybe along with arbutin.
Is this the correct way, or will i end up even blacker?
P.S.: Incase I failed to make it obvious, i do not have melasma or anything. I have some scarring from blackheads in the past, and as i said, im only trying to bleach my skin because white = better looking.
