Skin Problem
Hi I've used melacare cream for at least a year. Used to apply it at night and wash it in the morning. Skin seemed to be glowing after using. But after a year when I stopped, my skin is completely pigmented. My skin was fair before I used the cream . Now it's turned dark. Can I get my actual skin fairness back? If yes do guide me... Pls

Please stop using melacare 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.,,,
