Hi,

I can understand your concern for pigmentation on face. After reading the query it appears that you may suffer from steroid abuse and dependence as you are using the steroid cream.

On its prolonged use it can cause thinning skin with pigmented, red irritated skin or even hair growth.

I suggest you to use proper sun protection. You can use Azelaic acid or Kojic acid creams under dermatological guidance only. These can be used for a long period without any side effects. This may take few weeks of the time to resolve your problem so have patience.

Take care
