Hi
Thanks for posting your query on HCM.

I appreciate your concern for the safety of Metasone.
Metasone is a strong and potent steroid it must be used under prescription of dermatologist because it can cause skin thinning and permanent damage.

To enhance skin lightening over the lips in case of melasama following medications are found to be useful:

Hydroquinone or Tretinoin or Kojic acid available in the forms of cream, lotion, gel, or liquid.
But do not take any such medications with out consulting a dermatologist.
Hope this answers your query.
