Melacare Plus Cream

Steroid abuse: this cream contains few harmful ingredients and hence it may cause a lot of unwanted side effects like irritation, hair growth on face, thinning of skin, wrinkles on face, pimples and even steroid dependence. You should stop using it immediately. If your skin has become addicted to it, leave it gradually. Apply alternate days for a week, then twice a week for next week and then stop. Never use any over the counter cream on your face without consulting your dermatologist.

Please do not use any random creams on your face without a prescription. Every medicine has a side effect. Please visit your nearest dermatologist.

Hi Lybrate-User, Melacare cream has steroid and hydroquinone which cause multiple side effects on skin on prolonged use. Recovery will take few weeks, for that foremost thing is use a good broad spectrum sunscreen according to your skin and use it 15 to 20 mins before sun exposure and repeat its application every 3 hours if you are out. Use a mild cleanser like cetaphil for face wash avoid fragrance or acids containing face wash. At night time use a good oil free moisturiser and use in morning also if your skin feels dry.

Hi lybrate-user, melacare should not be used for more than a month. If you do end up using it for long. I request you to use biluma. Its a cream with very little to no side effects. Melacare longterm use has side effects. Please always consult. Take care.

Avoid using both. It will cause skin dullness after you stop using. I advice you to use homoepathic cream. No side effects.
