I've been dealing with Melasma for about 45 years now, and it's really noticeable because of my fair skin. There are these dark patches on my cheekbones. I tried cosmo peel and laser treatments about two years ago, but they didn't help at all. A dermatologist suggested I use Triluma cream twice a week, so I've been trying it out for the past two weeks. My skin's started flaking and feels really dry, and whenever I put on my Neutrogena Ultra Sheer sunscreen, I get this burning, tingling sensation. Is this normal?

I'm worried because I applied chuna powder on my mole, and now it's healing. How long will it take to heal completely? Will there be any scars? Can you recommend any ointments I can get in India to speed up the healing process?

Question

So, my doctor had prescribed me this medication after I had a fractional laser treatment to help with redness. It's been about two months now, and I'm noticing some redness again. I'm worried if it's okay to start taking these tablets once more, or could that lead to any side effects since the doctor initially gave me 40 tablets? Can I reuse this medication safely?
