Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The treatment option provided is for hyperpigmentation but should be used under a doctor's supervision and guidance. Please contact a dermatologist in your area for the same.
Though these creams are easilly available in market but should be used only after a personalised consultation with dermatologist. On healthcare magic we do not prefer publicising any particular brand and intend to provide a basic treatment protocol for better understanding of patient.
Regards
