Suggest Remedy For Hyperpigmentation
My dermatologist has prescribed a formula to treat hyperpigmentation on my chin area only to be applied at night in winter - 4 months in a year. It contains hydroquinone, retin A, elocon and ascorbic acid. Is this safe to use and would there be any side effects if I stop using this formula?

Hello
It is safe to use.
However the effect will last only till the time you use it.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
