Elocon is a good product however it has steroid in it that's why you have to be careful. It's only advised to be used at night. That too in a small amount. Do not rub. Only use it after consulting a dermatologist. They will tell you how long you can use it. Also, use sunscreen of at least 50 spf in the morning. Avoid sun as much as possible.

Elocon is a strong steroid which has serious side effects. You need to immediately stop the cream. Your skin must have become very sensitive due to using steroid cream for a long period. You will need a good sunscreen, moisturizer and other creams. Will need to examine your face for prescribing medicines. Please connect through direct online consultation for prescription.
