I have used depiwhite cream on pimple spots but it has caused me redness, what to do now? Is it serious?

Hi himali if it causes mild redness you can stop and start again. If redness continues you should stop it completely. If redness is intense with burning then you should better stop. One piece of advice better not use it without supervision of doctor as it contains hydroquinone which can have long term side effects.

Hi depiwhite is good skin lightening cream to be used under the doctors supervision. Whenever you are using it, pimple should completely heal before its application, otherwise it can cause redness in active pimple. Anyways don't worry, stop depiwhite cream for few days until skin becomes normal. Use moisturiser 2 to 3 times day for soothing effect and sunscreen in the morning. Take vitamin rich foods for better anti oxidation.
