General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Melacare contains mometasone which is a steroid. Long-term use of topical steroid will cause skin atrophy and development of small blood vessels in your face. It is better to shift on other options.
You can use
1.     Retino – A cream
2.     Melalite Forte cream and
How to use??
Mix equal amount of these two creams on your palm, mix well, apply very gently on your face at bed time. Do not rub while applying and apply a very thin layer (small amount). Remember; mix only whilst ready to apply. Store both creams separately.
Retino – A makes you skin sensitive to sunlight. So use Spectraban sensitive sunscreen cream before exposure to sunlight. You can use other over the counter sunscreen available in the market.
After use of Retno – A & Melalite creams for long time, your skin might suffer temporary dryness. In that condition, you can apply Elovera cream in day time. Try to avoid soap for washing your face. Use only oil based face washes.
Thanks
