I've noticed some fat deposits under my skin and new ones keep appearing. Is this something harmful or just a cosmetic issue? What's the best way to remove them, and how does the surgical removal process work? Could you also give me an idea about the cost of the procedure?

I've been using Momate F cream USP on my face for some time and the results have been pretty great. I'm just a bit worried and curious if there are any side effects I should be aware of. Also, if I stop using it, is there a chance the spots will come back?

Momate F cream, containing mometasone and fusidic acid, can have side effects like skin thinning, redness, itching, and increased risk of infections, and if stopped, the underlying skin condition may recur, but the spots themselves may not necessarily "grow back" worse than before, however, it's essential to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice on usage and discontinuation.
