Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. As per your complain I would like to inform you that Cosmelite cream is a steroid based cream containing Hydroquinone, Tretinoin and Mometasone Furoate.. Steroid creams initially shows wonderful effects on face by reducing pigmentation and brightening the face.. But long term use has severe side effects like skin thinning, pimples, inflammation, rashes, itching, excess hair growth and dilated veins under the skin.. As you already have sensitive skin along with dryness and brown pigmentation you should not use Cosmelite cream or any other steroid based cream without consulting a Dermatologist.. I would suggest you to consult a Dermatologist who can evaluate you clinically and he can advise you to start using her safe depigmentation creams and facewash like salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewash like AHA Glow, Melaglow etc. -Creams containing kojic acid, arbutin and glycolic acid can help in reducing dark spots.. -Apply Vitamin E gel.. -You can also use creams containing Licorice and grapeseed extract.. -Avoid sun exposure and always apply sunscreen lotion to avoid photosensitivity effect that can further increase darkness.. -You can apply cooled aloevera gel on face to soothe the skin.. -Avoid using any skin cosmetics.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
