Brief Answer:
Carac(Fluouracil) is commonly used to treat skin growths from sun exposure!

Detailed Answer:
HI,

You got the spelling right. This is a cream applied on the body to treat growths resulting from excessive solar exposure. It should normally treat the growth and keep the skin intact. However, some side effects may occur with changes like erosion, hyper pigmentation, erythema, rash, etc. These are side effects only and will not happen in a majority of the clients. It is almost impossible to tell what the skin will look like after using this product with certainty. It might just be same as before using the product or may show changes in line with the side effects of this drug if you do suffer from any.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be for more information and clarifications.

Kind regards.
