Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. As per your complain dermovate contains steroid clobetasol which is a steroid and long term use of steroids can lead to side effects over skin and the symptoms of redness and stretch marks and wounds are all side effects of it.. You should first of all completely stop using it, apply only olive oil or aloevera gel over face, do cold compresses and frequent splashing of face with cool water.. Let the skin heal.. Once the skin starts getting better you can start using Kojic acid containing creams over face. Apply aloevera gel cooled by refrigerating.. Apply rose water using a cotton ball.. Take multivitamin supplements. Drink plenty of water.. Avoid sun exposure.. If still you do not find improvement consult a Dermatologist and get evaluated and he can advise you to get photofacial and chemical peeling done to improve complexion.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
