hi,
thanks for the query. melacare cream is prescribed for the initial control of facial pigmentation. this cream should not be used on the face for more than 2-3 weeks. the steroid component of this cream is resposible for the acne and sensitivity that you are having. kindly stop the cream, start using sunscreen in daylight. if this still persists you need to visit dermatologist in your area who will give you a milder steroid to wean you off this cream. i hope this helped you.
