Can Diprovate-S Be Used For Treatment Of Lichen Planus Spots On Skin?

I had an attack of Lichen planus in 2010, there are still some spots (lumps) on my skin, which treatment should I take to get completely smooth skin? Can I use Diprovate-S, I used Diprovate-G, which somewhat cleared these spots, but they have not completely gone. Will Diprovate-S be stronger than Diprovate-G?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if you have a lichen planus, then this disease is autoimmune disease and there is cure for this but of course if the initial trigger is known this can be treated with steroid and the disease can be controlled still the chances of natural remission within six months of period is likely even if you do not take the steroid, take care and have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
