Brief Answer:
Use kojic acid and sunscreen

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Melacare forte is a triple combination cream which is used for skin lightening, however prolonged use can cause side effects.
You can use non steroidal skin lightening creams like kojic acid daily in night and sunscreen in day.
Do this for 6 months and then stop using kojic acid and apply only sunscreen in morning on regular basis.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
