Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per your complain, Panderm Plus Cream contains steroid which on long-term use causes steroid dependence and also steroid causes thinning of skin leading to inflammation and redness and stoppage of the use leads to darkening of the skin.

I would suggest you to stop using Panderm Plus cream and initially you may notice skin darkening which will gradually become normal.

For skin brightening, you can use Kojic Acid containing creams like Kojicare or Kojivit or other brand names available as it is safe for long-term use.

You can apply aloevera gel for lubrication of the face.
Vitamin E oil can be applied at night.
Wash your face 2 to 3 times a day using a mild face wash.
Exfoliate your skin twice a week using a mild scrub.
Always apply a SPF 50 containing sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun.
Drink plenty of water.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
