Question
I'm thinking about using Cosmelite cream because my aunt recommended it to me. But I'm a bit unsure about it. Can anyone advise whether it's safe to start using it or if there are any concerns I should be aware of?

It contains a combination of Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone. If you have been advised to use Cosmelite cream for some skin conditions, you can apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area once at night, or as directed by your doctor. However, it is important to note that this cream should not be used for a prolonged period of time, as it can lead to side effects such as skin thinning, redness, and increased sensitivity to sunlight. Before using Cosmelite cream, it is recommended to do a patch test on a small area of your skin to check for any allergic reactions.
