MELACARE Cream:Snce it has probably not been advised by a Dr it would be best to start at bedtime on alteernate nights,and notice the response,if there is no marked redness and itcing you could use it every night for 2-3 weeks and then stop for some time.Use sunprotction during day time for next 2-3 months
