Its not advisable to use cosmolite cream for a long duration as it contains steriod and hydroquinone which can cause various side effects like thinning of skin redness ,irritation etc. You can use creams containing natural ingredients like kojic acid ,arbutinin and mulberry extracts. Chemical peels can also be done to remove tan and restore natural skin tone. For that consult dermatologist.

It is a bleaching cream for pigmentation. It is banned in Europe and America as it itself can cause irreversible pigmentation. You may use it for 15 days and stop.

Hello Lybrate user. Melalite forte cream contains hydroquinone which can cause irritation, redness or dermatitis. I would recommend you to first find out the cause of pigmentation on your son's neck instead of using this over the counter medication as treating the cause will help in reduction of the same.
