Brief Answer:
Use it with caution.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, thanks for writing to healthcare magic.I can understand your concern.
Melacare cream is used for melasma.
It is applied at night and washed after 1 hour. It is strictly avoided at day time and strict sun protection is recommended.
It can cause redness of face and more darkening if not used in a proper way.
My first opinion is to avoid this cream and start treatment under the guidance of a dermatologist. If you still want to continue it use it with proper sun protection and caution.
You can use it on beard area but it has no effect on beard.
I hope this will help you. In case of any concern I'll be happy to help you.
Thanks.
Use it with caution.
