I am a breast feeding mother. I have low milk supply and I am mainly using formula for feeding. Can I use demelan cream (glycolic acid, kojic acid, arbutin) to reduce pigmentation. Will it affect my baby?

Do not use the cream while you are breastfeeding. It's not safe.

You can take. But first off all you should take prescribed cream or ointment. Consult doc.

Don't use a cream which the baby can ingest. Pigmentation is a pregnancy change, which no cream can take away.
