Can anyone please suggest a good cream available in medicals to remove the dark spots from my skin. I have used clonate cream for many months but was of no use. Please suggest an effective corticosteroid cream.

Steroid creams always is not the answer. Closure, halox are all steroids. There are better options. Please consult online for better options.
