Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest A Hyperpigmentation Cream For Dark Spots On The Face
I have ashy dermatosis and the doctor prescribed me a topical steroid, tacrolimus ointment and a pigmentation cream (Melaglow rich) but after using it to two months I stopped using tacrolimus because of itching and now Melaglow rich is also causing itching after usage of about 2 and half months. I want to switch to a new hyperpigmentation cream. The spots are pretty dark. Please suggest me a good cream. I am using topical steroids twice a week.
As per your query you have symptoms of dark spots on the face which could be due to your underlying systemic condition and excessive exposure to UV rays. Need not to worry. I would suggest you -Wash your face with mild soap twice a day and apply Kojivit cream. -Protect your skin from excess sun exposure as it can worsen the condition. -Apply vitamin E oil at night before going to bed. If the condition doesn't get improved in a month then consult dermatologist again for proper examination. -The doctor may prescribe corticosteroid cream and retinoids. The doctor may recommend chemical peeling or dermabrasion depending upon the severity of the condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
