I am using hydroquinone 2% cream from 1 month and I heard after leaving using it, it will give the old skin tone back how to avoid this side effect and how long its safe to use it.

Hi lybrate-user, It is not recommended to use Hydroquinone preparations for long periods of time as it can lead to side effects like hyperpigmentation /hypopigmentation too. I advise you to stop using this ointment/cream. For improving tone and texture of face, removal of dark spots and for glowing facial skin, I recommend skin lightening creams, Skin lightening capsules/tablets, Chemical peels and Microdermabrasion therapy. You will need a skin lightening cream and good sunscreen initially. I can prescribe you that. For further improvement, advanced treatments can be initiated. I would be happy to help you. Please consult me privately so that I can understand your problem in detail and help you.
