Can I use eumosone m cream on my face? A dermatologist suggested I use it for 20 days on my nose to help with sebaceous filaments, which haven't improved even after trying antibiotics and moisturizers. I'm just wondering if it's okay to use it like that.

I live abroad in Saudi Arabia and recently purchased Pigmanorm cream, which contains hydroquinone, for my melasma and dyspigmentation. After using it for 3 days, the area where I applied it turned really red. I'm quite worried about this reaction, even though I'm also using Eveline sunscreen SPF 50 in the afternoons. Should I stop using the cream, or should I continue? And will the redness on my skin go away on its own? I'm also sharing a picture of my face and the cream I used to help you understand better. Can you guide me on what to do next?

I've recently noticed some white patches on my bum, just below the waist area. I'm 21 years old and I'm a bit concerned about what this could be. Is it something I should be worried about? What could be causing this, and should I see a doctor?

Thrombophobe cream for local application atleast 7-14 days is advised to the patient once daily.

I'm wondering when exactly I should be using Momate F for vitiligo, and how long it should be left on before washing it off. Could you give me some guidance on the right timing and duration?

Momate F cream is a topical corticosteroid used to treat various skin conditions, including vitiligo. Application and Duration: 1. Apply a thin layer of Momate F cream to the affected area (vitiligo patches) once or twice a day, as directed by your doctor.1. After applying Momate F cream, wait for at least 2-3 hours before washing your face. 2. When washing your face, use a mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water, harsh soaps, or exfoliating scrubs, as they can strip the skin of its natural oils and reduce the effectiveness of the cream.
