Mhg Lotion 6ml

About Mhg Lotion 6Ml

MHG Lotion is used to manage vitiligo, a skin condition in which patches of skin lose their colour due to loss of pigment-producing cells (melanocytes). It is a topical medicine containing Deca Peptide, a growth factor.

It helps stimulate melanocyte activity, supporting the gradual return of skin colour, and may also help support wound healing and tissue repair. Apply it only to the affected areas in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor. Regular use over several weeks to months is usually needed to see improvement.

Protect the treated skin from excessive sun exposure with clothing or sunscreen, and keep the area clean and dry.

Before starting, tell your doctor if you have skin allergies, other skin treatments you use, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Avoid applying it to broken or infected skin unless advised by your doctor. Contact your doctor if you notice increased redness, irritation or any unusual reaction. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
