Hello Sanju,Kojic acid cream is safe to lactating mother,but u should also use Sunclip gel sunscreen in the morning n also apply Clindac A gel at night if pimples r there,for scars u need to have oral medicine also which may effect the baby,so after u stop baby feeding u can start treatment for scars , wash your face with Saslic face wash twice a day n take fruits and vegetables and avoid junk n sugary foods and drinks
