Are there any effective home remedies or lifestyle changes that might help shrink or get rid of them? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife and would prefer a gentler approach if possible. What options do I have?

I'm really stressed out because my wedding is coming up soon on July 10th, and I'm dealing with these stubborn dark spots from acne. I've heard that Betnovate N could help lighten them, but I'm worried about its side effects. I feel like I don't have any other choices right now. Could you offer any advice or alternatives?

Betnovate-N is not recommended for treating dark spots of acne due to its side effects, especially when used on the face. Instead, you can use a topical cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream, to help lighten the dark spots. Apply a thin layer of Melalite cream on the affected areas once at night for 2-3 months. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening.
