Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM
Definately, Pigmentation seems to be due to some constituent in the cream.
I would advice that she should consult a dermatologist. Her dermatologist might ask her to apply a demelanising cream containing One OR more of the following constituents: kojic acid, glycolic acid, hydroquinone, arbutin, liquorice extract, Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate etc.
Using a broad spectrum sunscreen throughout the day, with protection against both UVA and UVB is an essential part of treatment regimen.
take care
