My aunty is having the condition of vitiligo. She has coped up with the situation but only problem is her face where a certain region around the nose is quite dark. She wants to have some cream which can help her make that area white as well. Doc, can you please suggest any treatments or creams for this condition?
Hi thanks for using HCM, I had gone through your question. Don't worry about this. It is not vitilligo. It is chemical leucoderma, due to over use of steroid on the dark area. 1) Stop the cream immediately. 2) Cap L .glutathion and lipoicacid daily for 1month. 3) Tacrolimus 0.03% Apply on affected part and expose to sun. this helps you. best of luck.
