Is Betnovate C Along With Vaseline A Good Option For Pimples?
i was having lot of pimples on face then i applied crushed Garlic directly to the pimples and pimples are gone but i am left with burn marks...the part of face where i applied it turned red now it turned black...i applied betnovate c, vaseline, cucumber but none of it worked...what should i do?
Betnovate contains a potent topical steroidbetamethasone valerate and it should never be used on face for pimples or pimple marks/hyperpigmentation as it can itself cause acne (steroid induced acne).
I would rather suggest that you visit a dermatologist for your skin problem. Your dermatologist might choose to prescribe a skin lightening cream containing one or more of the skin lightening agents like kojic acid, Azaleic acid, hydroquinone, glycolic acid etc
You can also opt to undergo a few peeling sessions from your treating dermatologist (glycolic peel Or kojic acid peel Or retinol peel).
Always use a broad spectrum sunscreen (gel based), throughout the day.
An Oral Vit C supplement, once daily, would help to hasten the resolution of hyperpigmentation.

Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic You seem to have post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
