Use of ultrabrite cream for melasma

2022-06-23 19:59:00
I have been using ultrabrite cream (hydroquinone, metasome furoate) for 8 weeks to treat dark spots on my face  . I recently read about the dangerous effect of the cream and stopped using it. I am afraid of the negative effects (like more acne and pimples , light sensitivity,skin thinning etc) , people reported after they stopped using the cream. What should I use so that the side effects wont occur on my face? Please reply to the query . Can I use homeopathic medicines for the same to block the side effects from occuring? Or Is there any other medicine to do so? Thanks

Good that you have stopped the cream after realising the side-effects of cream .now just use a sunscreen in the morning and moisturiser at night .your skin will gradually improve.
