Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query your mother have symptoms of dark sports on face which keeps on reoccurring once melacare cream is stopped is because of your skin sensitivity, skin to highly susceptible to UV rays of sun and it keeps on absorbing them and become dark again. Hormonal changes at menopause age is one of the major cause as well.

I would suggest you to take natural preventive measures along with medication :

1)Use natural face wash solution in the morning and evening followed by application of adapalene 0.1% cream at night over the patches for about 15 days.

2) Wash your face with facewash containing benzoyl peroxide twice a days with cold water.

3) Apply azelaic acid cream both for dark spots and acne twice daily and apply aloe vera gel at night if your mother have oily skin and honey if dry skin.

4) Drink plenty of fluids and water to rehydrate yourself.

Visit dermatologist once for patch test if your condition keeps on persisting to know the basic skin etiology for recurrence .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
