Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC ..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Zincoderm contain Steroid clobetasol and long term use of steroids can lead to Steroid dependence and the stoppage of use can lead to withdrawal symptoms that you are experiencing presently..
You can do cool compresses over face, wash your face frequently throughout the day with cold water..
Gradually the Inflammation will subside..
Once the Inflammation reduce start washing your face with Salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewash..
Apply Kojic Acid, Glycolic acid and arbutin containing creams.
Apply Vitamin E oil or gel at night..
Exfoliate your face with a gentle scrub weekly..
Take Vitamin c supplements..
-You can also go for Glycolic acid peels and Microdermabrasion..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
