What Are The Chances Of Getting Cancer From Using Skin Bleaching Creams?
Posted on | February 25, 2010 | 2 Comments
I recently bought a bleaching cream that contains the ingredient Hydroquinone that from what ive heard, can cause cancer. I’m scared, and I’m not sure if I should start using it or not. What exactly are the chances of getting cancer and how exactly would it cause cancer?
Thankyou ><

Hello…Anything that changes cell structure or alters normal cellular production or division has the potential to cause cancer. Cancer by definition is simply an abnormal growth of cells. When you use this cream it is going to be altering the normal cellular response of the cells that produce pigmentation. This is how this cream is potentially “cancer causing”. Why risk it? I’m certain that you are beautiful just the way you are. There is no need to use this cream. So you are darker skinned or perhaps there are some areas that are lighter than others who cares? You are a wonderful person who deserves to be healthy. I hope that this has helped is some small way. Best of luck to you.

The US has not banned Hydroquinone but Europe has banned it because of an increase in skin tumors in mice however, mice and humans do not respond similar in dermal testing in many cases.
