Skin bleaching is one of the commonest ways in which drugs are missuse. Studies have shown that bleaching creams containing hydroquinone of mercuric compounds are toxic and excreted by the kidney where damage can be done. similarly, hydroquinone was initially thought to be safe but it has been proven otherwise because the quantity, Vigour and duration of application affects hydroquinone's toxicity.
The chemical hydroquinone deposit a type of acid, which cause the disease known as "OCHRONOSIS".
hydroquinone cause damage to the skin which makes skin tissue difficult to be stitch in event of cut or surgery.people with chronic skin damage also have delayed or complete failure of wound healing,operation is delicate to handle by surgeons.
Hydroquinone has not been proven yet to cause skin cancer perse, although the chemical damaging effects on the skin cannot be excluded.
This bleaching creams can also contain very potent corticosteroid which dermatologist use to treat a very serious skin condition for a short time on a small part part of the body because prolong use on a large part of the body can lead to serious skin damage. However, manufactures of these creams are legally covered because its is usually written on the packet " use as directed by the physician".The unpleasant effect of the chemical is repulsive to the skin. Therapeutic creams which was designed for bleaching have flooded the market because Nigerian women are fond of bleaching. Those who bleach their skin stand the effects of suffering malignant tumor.skin bleaching does not only affects the health of the human, but it is also an insult to black race.
