Dermatologist,  's  Response
hi,
thank you for putting up your query on HCM.
as per your history, my advise would be:
you can use glyco 6 cream once at night time alternate day.
--along with it, you can use sebamed sunscreen 20 min before stepping out in sun and reapplied every 3-4 hrs.
-- using glyco 6 crean, you may feel dryness of skin or peeling. for this, you have to apply emolient cream at day time.
-- i wouldn't recommend you to apply elcon lotion or melas cream as they contain corticosteroids and hydroquinone, which have side effects in the long term.
wishing you good health.
thank you.
