Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Triglow TM cream contains Hydroquinone, Tretinoin and Fluocinolone Acetonide and it can be used for a short period of time after consultation with a Dermatologist..
It can be used for a short duration of time as it contains steroid and long term use of steroid can lead to more of side effects than benefits..
You can also use other depigmentation agents like creams containing Kojic acid, Glycolic acid and arbutin..
Azelic acid containing creams are also helpful.
Apply Vitamin E gel at night..
You should also exfoliate your skin twice a week using a gentle scrub..
Keep yourself well hydrated, take multivitamin supplements and a nutritious diet..
You can also go for chair side treatments at the dermatologist clinic like Photofacial, galvanic facial, chemical peeling etc..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
