Suggest Alternative Medication To Hydroquinone For Skin Lightening

I m using melamet cream since 1year 2 months I got positive effects but after some reviews I heard that it s bad for skin. I have even heard that using hydro quinine 2% doesn t cause any harm. I have stopped using this cream since 10 days didn t find any changes on my face. I have 2 questions is there any chances of turning black again if yes then how to maintain that fairness which has come to my face? Please help me and do the needful please.

Yes there is chance of recurrence. It can be prevented by applying sunscreens during daytime . Fairness can be maintained by applying non-steroidal creams like kojic acid based creams and other combination suitable for your skin type.
