Please stop using betnovate cream as it contains strong steroids which can serious side effects in the long run. Steroid induced acne, photosensitivity, rosacea, atrophy, stretch marks, pigmentation, dryness etc to name a few side effects. Please don't use any such Steroid containing fairness creams. You will require treatment to slowly put you off this cream by using some substitute as the skin becomes addicted to the steroid. Hence you are facing such a problem. Please call me or send photos through online consult option for proper examination and treatment.,,,

Topical steroid damaged facies is what you seem to have. Many young people use the marketed fake products promising miraculous results. These fairy tubes have steroid as a component and it damages the skin on a long term basis. Skin becomes very sensitive and thin and it burns even if a day you miss steroids cream. Counselling and education me about the potential side effects of such medicines and how to get back my healthier skin is what you need.
Next Steps
You can meet a qualified Dermatologist with MD/DNB/DDVL/DVD degree for proper examination.
