Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello, i am sure that betnovate usage was a part of ur self medication because no doctor prescribes it for hyperpigmentation as it causes harm rather than good for this condition.
Now, u also have steroid induced acne
I would adv you to stop Betnovate (if you have been using it for months, then taper and stop)
Use Minoz-S facewash for washing face twice daily.
Apply Clindoxyl gel twice daily on the lesions.
Take cap triomega 1 cap twice daily for atleast 2 months.
Review after 15 days.
I would suggest that you do this till your acne subsides, then will go for treatment of hyperpigmentation because meds against pigmentation may aggravate your acne.
Thanks
Take care.
