I've been using Pendram Plus for a while and now I've got these dark circles and my skin has turned really dark. I'm kind of worried about how I can fix this. Any suggestions on what to do?

Prolonged use of Pendram Plus, a topical corticosteroid cream, can lead to skin darkening and other side effects. To address these issues, follow these steps: Reversing Skin Darkening 1. Stop using Pendram Plus: Discontinue using the cream to prevent further skin darkening.Reducing Dark Circles 1. Eye creams: Use eye creams containing ingredients like: - Caffeine (reduces puffiness) - Peptides (stimulates collagen production) - Vitamin K (fades dark circles) 2. Cold compress: Apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce puffiness. 3. Elevate your head: Sleep with your head slightly elevated to reduce fluid accumulation under the eyes. 4.

I've been struggling with pimples on my face and decided to visit the doctor, who recommended the Melacare cream. I started using it, but now I'm dealing with some side effects like redness, itching, and even skin lightening. The tricky part is if I stop applying it, my face breaks out in pimples almost immediately. I'm really stuck on what to do next. Could you suggest any alternative remedies or a way to stop using this cream without making my skin issues worse?
