I've been using Melacare cream for over a year now and I'm really worried because I want to stop using it. The problem is, I've lost my fairness and now my face is covered in acne. How can I get my clear skin back and safely stop using this cream?

I'm using Jiaobi whitening cream, and I've noticed my skin's getting clearer and my dark spots are fading. But I'm wondering, is this cream actually safe for long-term use? Could there be any side effects I should be worried about? And is there any risk it might cause skin cancer? Just trying to make sure it's okay to keep using it. The ingredients listed are stearic acid glyceride, barley, cress, bone wood, chamomile, Vitamins A, D, E, aloe vera, and enzyme.

There are minimal side-effects like itching,rash and nausea.Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm wondering if it's okay to put Deriva BPO gel just on my acne spots or scars, or should I go ahead and apply it to my whole face? I'm a bit concerned about how it might affect the rest of my skin if I use it all over. What do you recommend?

Deriva BPO gel can be applied to the full face, not just on acne or acne scars. It should be applied as a thin layer on the entire affected area once daily, preferably in the evening, after washing the face with a gentle cleanser. Remember to use sunscreen during the day as this product can increase sensitivity to sunlight.
