White patch on the face

Hi, I have a white patch on the left side of the face, near to me lips. It appears and diappears after sometime. When I shave it is prominent. Can you suggest any cream or medicine for this patch to go away.

Hi It is difficult to diagnose your condition for sure from the photograph. Certain lesions need to be checked under magnifying lens or woods lamp or felt by touching to come to a final diagnosis. It can be due to sunlight or dandruff. Please show to a dermatologist and take proper treatment. Best regards Dr Vijay Adhe, Eternis Skin & Hair Clinic, Pune
