Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. As per your complain I would like to inform you that Skinlite cream is a steroid based cream containing Hydroquinone + Tretinoin + Mometasone Furoate[Steroid] .. Steroid creams initially shows wonderful effects on face by reducing pigmentation and brightening the face.. But long term use has severe side effects like skin thinning, pimples, inflammation, rashes, itching, excess hairgrowth and dilated veins under the skin.. Also on long term use the skin becomes addicted or dependant on steroids and once the use is suddenly stopped, there are withdrawal side effects and it is the same thing that you are facing now that is increased pigmentation, rashes, swelling, redness etc.. The damage caused to the skin by the steroid based creams takes a long time to resolve and you should keep patience and continue taking safer depigmentation treatment.. You can start using facewash like salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewash.. Use creams containing Kojic acid, arbutin and glycolic acid.. Use Vitamin E gel.. You can also use creams containing grapeseed extract and Licorice extract.. Do cool compresses on face and wash face with cool water.. You can apply cooled aloevera gel on face to soothe the skin.. You can exfoliate your skin twice a week with a gentle scrub.. You should limit sun exposure and always apply sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun.. You can also go for treatments like Photofacial, chemical peeling, microdermabrasion etc.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
