Helo doctor , i am 22 years old , i have deep pigmentation and blemishes on my face which makes me very uncomfortable when i go out. I went to a dermatologist, he prescribed melaglow and its been 20 days i am using this cream but i didn't find a good result. I mean it didn't bring any change on my face till now, its just the same.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

As per your query pigmentation's and blemishes on the face is because of excessive pigment accumulation . Skin is sensitive to melanocytes. You should avoid steroids on face. Melaglow contain steroid and hydroquinone which are not good for long term use .

I would suggest you to :-

- Use azelaic acid cream which is natural extract of cereals , very effective and safe for long term use .

- Apply turmeric powder paste for 1 hour daily and wash it away .

- Also apply tomato pulp mix with honey for half an hour and then wash away.

I condition persist for more then month then consult dermatologist for proper evaluation . Doctor may recommend laser therapy.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
