Hi,

Never use melacare cream because it contains hydroquinone,which is a notorious chemical. It might cause toxic effects like confetti like depigmentation,which is irreversible. Ochronosis is other side effect.

You may use Kojic acid containing gel on the hyperpigmented patches on the face. Take vitamin C tablets for the long time.

I hope this would help.

Thanks.
