Don't use cosmolite. It contains steroids. For time being you will get wonderful results but after some time it will start showing side effects. Better to consult nearby Doctor.

You should immediately stop this cream. Primarily because it doesn't suit your skin as it contain tretinoin & secondary reason is because it contains a potent steroid in it which is not good for your skin.

Sun exposure and darkening of the skin due to a burn or any other injury can also cause dark patches around the lips. In very cold weather, if you lick your lips and the area around it too often, it can discolour the skin and make it look darker.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

You may stop using the cream for a couple of weeks and see if the white patches improve. If they are persistent, it would be best to consult a dermatologist to evaluate whether the patches have appeared as a result of using the cream or the underlying cause is something else altogether.

Hi, pls apply a sunscreen like rivela or neutrogena regularly during the day. Apply a suitable moisturizer. The skin will return to normal in few weeks.

It may cause a temporary uptick in redness or dryness at first, especially if you have sensitive skin. These effects should fade as your skin becomes used to the product. In rare cases, hydroquinone has caused a condition called ochronosis.
But you should not use any cream without doctor's advise as it may be harmful.

Hydroquinone should not be used for a long time even if you are using alternatively. Kojivit cream you can continue using for a long time as it is relatively safe.
