Hello, elosoneht is a strong steroid cream. It can give severe side effects. So please stop using it. Instead apply kojivit gel one pea size drop for full face at night for a month. Use sun protection during the day.

Plain hydroquinone will give results but should be used for short time like 3-4 months. Cosmolite is triple combination cream thats why you got side effects. Both can be used but under doctors guidence. Visit dermatologist n take proper treatment it is always better.

Hello mam
Skin complexion is very much based on genetics and the climate you are living in. Be comfortable and confident with the complexion you got. These skin creams do more harm and no good.
Regards.

Hello, Getlite cream has hydroquinone and steroid which are strong depigmenting agents but should not be used for long period as they have side effects. Kojivit plus cream is effective and more safer it can be used twice a day. And use sunscreen 2-3 times a day based on your sun exposure. It does take time.

Hii dear...This cream is a combination of hydroquinone, tretinoin, and steroid. It is a skin lightening medication used for hyperpigmentation, it has lot of side effects when used on normal skin. Long term use of steroids can cause infections, acneiform eruption, atrophy, etc. Long term use of hydroquinone can cause exogenous ochronosis. Kindly avoid such creams for skin lightening. It must only be used for hyperpigmentation when indicated.
