I've been dealing with this pimple on my face and decided to try betamethasone ointment on it. After I washed my face, I noticed that the area where I applied it looked lighter. I'm not sure if that's a good sign or if I should be concerned. Could this be a side effect or does it mean the ointment is working?

I'm a 27-year-old guy and I'm having trouble growing a beard on my cheeks. I do have some beard growth below my chin and my moustache looks normal, but my cheeks just won't fill in.
