Overview

Tri-Luma is a skin care cream manufactured by Galderma Laboratories, L.P. This cosmetic product aims to assist with dark spots on facial skin, a condition that is scientifically referred to as Melasma. Tri-Luma is a “triple-action cream” that was developed to aid with short-term and long-term Melasma. This treatment cream is claimed to be totally safe, and can even be used for eight weeks or longer to treat this skin condition. A few before and after photos are offered on the official website and Tri-Luma was apparently “mentioned on Oprah.”

There are three primary active components found in Tri-Luma cream. These are 4% Hydroquinone, 0.01% Fluocinolone Acetonide and 0.05% Tretinoin. These three ingredients work together and endeavor to minimize or eliminate dark spots or discoloration on the face. Tri-Luma is a skin care treatment specifically for women who suffer from Meslama. The official website states that Tri-Luma should be used with a sunscreen, since the sun’s harmful rays can worsen Melasma. Some side effects to using Tri-Luma are pruritus, desquamation, burning, dryness and erythema. There does not appear to be any 100 percent money-back guarantee on the official Tri-Luma website. Tri-Luma is not sold via the official website. This is a product that must be prescribed by a dermatologist. Those using Tri-Luma should be aware that using other skin care products at the same time might irritate or dry out the skin.

Product Details

Tri-Luma is essentially a skin treatment cream that aims to remedy dark spots and discoloration. This product is marketed toward women in particular who suffer from a condition known as Melasma, the main symptom of which is dark, uneven skin splotches. Key ingredients found in Tri-Luma are 4% Hydroquinone, 0.01% Fluocinolone Acetonide and 0.05% Tretinoin. Tri-Luma can only be attained with a physician’s prescription. Those using Tri-Luma should always wear a sunscreen to avoid negative effects from the sun’s harmful rays. Tri-Luma has some potential side effects such as pruritus, desquamation, burning, dryness and erythema.

The Good

The official Tri-Luma website does a good job of explaing what the product is for and the active ingredients that are incorporated.
Tri-Luma is a simple, one-step cream that is applied daily.
Tri-Luma is acquired through with a dermatologist's prescription, which may be reassuring to some individuals.
A few before and after photos are found on the website.

The Bad

Tri-Luma does not come with a money-back guarantee since it is a dermatologist-prescribed cream.
There are some ingredients in Tri-Luma that may irritate the skin of some users, especially hydroquinine which is known to be quite harsh.
Tri-Luma must be applied with a sunscreen to ensure that the sun’s harmful rays do not worsen the condition of Melasma.
There is no full ingredient list for Tri-Luma on the official website.
There don't seem to be any customer testimonials on the official website.
Certain side effects like pruritus, desquamation, burning, dryness and erythema may occur when using Tri-Luma cream.

The Bottom Line

Unlike many skin care treatments available these days, Tri-Luma can only be acquired with a doctor’s prescription. While the active ingredients in this skin cream are supposed to work in unison to battle Melasma, this product is not formulated to fight against wrinkles. If Melasm is what's bothering you, and no wrinkle and fine facial lines, it could be worth doing some more research on this product. It’s certainly necessary to consult your physician prior to considering a skin product like Tri-Luma.
