Melasma and hyperpigmentation on face

2023-11-05 21:07:48
When I was in school 8 years ago, at the age of 20, I consulted a doctor for tiny pimples on my face. She prescribed Retino-A 0.025% cream, which I had to apply to the pimple-prone areas like my nose and cheeks. I used it for a few months, and my skin improved. However, now, after 9 years, I have developed melasma in that area. Is it possible that it's because of that cream.
