Used Hair Dye To Color Beard. Darkness After Shave. Suggested HiQuin. Continue Usage?

Dear Doctor,
I used hair dye to color my beard. I was keeping french beard.I removed my beard just three days back. The place where i kept french beard is now fully dark color which is giving awkward look and i am totally depressed. Yesterday i went to hospital and i met dermatologist. He suggested HiQuin(Hydroquinone 4%) and Cutivate(Fluticasone Propionate) and advised to apply in the nighttime by mixing equally. My question is how long it will take to reduce the black color? Can i continue with the suggested cream? Will it give any side effect?If this cream is not giving result, What will be the solution? Please please reply.
