Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . The skin dark complexion occur due excessive production of melanin by melanocytes . These cells are trigger by certain factors like sun exposure (common) , stress and hormonal changes .

The skin lite cream you mention in query contain hydroquinine , teritenoin and steroid . All the three ingredients have side effects in long term use . This cream should only be use under the expert advice for a limited time period.

I would suggest you to :

- Wash your face with johnson & johnson soap , which is a soft soap twice a day .

- Scrub your skin once a week.

- Apply azelaic acid cream twice a day (safe for use)

- Apply vitamin E oil at night .

- Apply broad spectrum suns cream with SPF 15 which going outside .

If condition doesn't get better in one month then consult dermatologist . Doctor may recommend chemical peeling or microdermabrassion.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
