Well the Dark spots on the skin can develop due to various conditions. Eg: Post Acne, Post Any Inflammation.
To remove the dark spots various Creams are Available . Most commonly prescribed are corticosteroid. This reduce the darkness over a period of time and are in fact more effective and potent than non-medicated creams that you see in advertisements.
One commonly prescribed cream in India is BETNOVATE . (as it seems you are located in India) It contains betamethasone which essentially in a Corticosteroid.
Directions for application >>
Best time to apply the cream is before retiring to bed. Make sure you wash your face first, pat it dry and then apply a small amount only on the Area involved and NOT on the entire face.
Side effects >>
Mostly corticosteroid are well tolerated if applied with care , following the directions.
Some people may notice flaring up of Acne in the initial 2 weeks of applying the cream.
Corticosteroids should never be used over a long term. As they cause the skin to become thin , freckled and causes the appearance of stretch marks (even on the face)
Make sure you consult a dermatologist for proper examination and evaluation of your condition. And personalized treatment options.
