Suggest Possible Medication For Pigmentation On Face

Hi Doctor...i have pigmentation in my face since 6 to 7 years. I tried many creams and did peel off treatment. However the result is not 100%. I am using Debiwhite cream since more than 4 years. I will apply in night but not every day. I will apply thrice a week. Now another doctor suggested me Advan cream . Alembic. Which cream is the best and how many times in a week I can apply them.

Dermatologist, Dr. Ilyas Patel's Response

Hi,

You may be having either melasma or facial melanosis. Consult the Dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment of your skin disease. I would recommend you to apply kojic acid containing gel. Avoid sun exposure. You may protect the skin by applying sun screen lotion. Cleanse the face with glycolic acid containing facewash. Take glutathione 500 mg cap daily. Avoid stress and have positive attitude.

Hope this helps.
