I'm curious about kojic acid creams and wondering if they contain any steroids. Are they safe to use over a long period? And how do they compare to skin lite cream?

Question

I'm really worried about my dark lips. It started with just the upper lip being darker before my pregnancy, but after giving birth, both my lips have gotten really dark. I've tried all sorts of home remedies and lip balms, but nothing is working. It's stressing me out so much. Can you recommend a cream or lotion that could help with this quickly?

Question

I've noticed these small white patches on my thighs, and they've been there for about a month now. They seem to be spreading, and I'm getting really worried. There's no family history of vitiligo, which makes it even more confusing. I've tried using Momate cream and Tacroz 0.1 for two weeks, but there's no sign of improvement. Now, my dermatologist has prescribed Melgain lotion in the morning, Tacroz 0.1 at night, and T.Ascozinc for a month. Do you think this will actually help, or is there anything else I should be considering?
