Hello,

Probably you are having perioral melanosis.It can occur due to vitamin defeicency,tooth paste use, excessive cosmetic use , acanthosis etc. It will be important to find out exact cause of pigmentation.

Skinlie,betnovate cream are all steroid containing creams and they have damaged your skin. A good cleansing lotion like cetaphil cleansing lotion will be helpful along with a good moisturizer like cetaphil lotion.

A mild depigmenting cream containing vitamin c ,kojic acid ,licorice applied on long term basis will be helpful without much side effects.

Along with these you can go for other cosmetic treatments like chemical peel,lasers etc .You can consult your dermatologist for this.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
