Hello.The cream that you refer contains hydroquinone and mometasone
Prolonged use of hydroquinone causes permanent depigmentation.
Prolonged use of mometasone cause skin atrophy.Consequently, the prolonged use of the cream that you refer is contraindicated.Remember you that avoid excessive exposure to the sun, use sunscreen and avoid stress are beneficial for your skin.I wish you good health.
