Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Welcome to health care magic, I have gone through your question very diligently and I share your concern.

At the outset I would like further information for better assessment like
if possible upload a photograph of pigmentation
since how long it has been there
Are you having any itching and burning sensation?

Since you were not getting results and pigmentation is increasing further I would advise you to avoid picon cream for a while and continue with Melano Tx alone once daily at night time and wash your face on waking up in the morning with face wash or antiseptic soap.

Melano Tx Cream contains Arbutin, Kojic Acid, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Mulberry Extract, Tranexamic Acid, and Vitamin E. Kojic Acid is depigmenting agent, continue using it at night.

Meanwhile please follow these measures as well
Avoid direct sun exposure or use sun screen lotion when you go out.
Have healthy diet habit, consisting of lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and low fat, low salt and low sugar diet.

Since you have talked about Alternative medicine, I am also trained in alternative medicine, In my opinion you should continue with Melano Tx and adopt healthy lifestyle and stress free life

Since it takes a long time even 2-4 months to get results, so continue using this cream and just relax.

Hope this answers your question, please do write back to me with these details I have asked for, so that I will be able to guide you better.
wishing you good health.
Regards

Brief Answer:
Continue with Melano Tx alone with certain lifestyle modifications

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dikhsa

I have seen your photograph, you are really beautiful, you have few pimples and patches of pigmentation.

Picon cream contain pimecrolimus which is an immunosuppressant mainly used to reduce inflammation and itching, which is not required in your case.

I would advise you to make lifestyle modifications like
avoid fatty fried and junk food
have lots of fluids like lemon water, fruit juices and so on.
Keep your face cleaned and moisturised all the time
Avoid direct sun exposure or cover your face when you go out or else use sun screen lotion.
Try to avoid stress and anxiety, lead a healthy and cheerful life, don't take any kind of tension.

Meanwhile continue with Melanoma Tx alone for 2-3 months and sun screen during day time

Hope this answers your question
wishing you a good health and happy new year.
Best wishes
