Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply cream containing kojic acid on the hands twice daily for atleast 8-10 weeks. It won't have any side effects.
Many brands containing kojic acid are available in the market like clearz plus cream, kojivit cream and kojiglo cream.
You can choose from any of the above.
You can use nmf e lip care balm for lips as it contains aloe vera and vitamin E and also doesn't have any side effects.
Regards
Dr Asmeet

Brief Answer:
Yes you can use kojivit gel cream, won't have side effects

Detailed Answer:
Yes you can use kojivit gel cream. Don't worry as it won't cause more darkening of the hands on stopping.
Both blistex lip balm and nmf lip care balm are equally good but I have experience of using nmf lip balm and it is very good.
