Skin Pigmentation. Prescribed Melrio. Skin Peeling, Burning. Normal Or Allergic?
I have pigmentation around my nose. I consulted a dermatologist who prescribed melrio cream. I have been applying it on the patches regularly. The result of it has been that the skin of the area where it was applied on has started peeling off and when the cream is applied on that area again, it burns a lot. Is this normal or is my skin allergic to the cream? Please help.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Hi Shreeja,
It seems due to improper application of the cream you have developed an irritant reaction to the cream itself.
Treatment of the same requires discontinuation of the cream along with application of moisturising lotion like cetaphil and mild steroid like hydrocortisone. Once the area eals completely, you any reintroduce melrio application in small quantity.
Hope that helped.
Take care
