Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
Betnovate-c and melacare are not good options for fairness as they contain steroids and other contents which can badly damage your skin.
For better complexion, use mild cream containing kojic acid, soy isoflavones, arbutin etc on regular basis ( Melaglow).
Use good quality water-based sunscreen regularly to avoid tanning and pigmentation due to sunlight.
Use good moisturiser like emolene to keep your skin well hydrated.
You can opt for simple office based procedures like chemical peeling, microdermabrasion, mesotherapy etc.
Use glycolic acid based facewash for gentle exfoliation of dead skin.
Hope this will help a long way in solving your problem.
Thank you
