Question 1

Hi, Ive noticed a small white spot on the upper part of my hand, about 1-2mm in size. Its slightly lighter than my skin, maybe a little pinkish or white. I only have this one spot, and Im wondering if it could be related to vitiligo or if it might be something else. Could you help me figure out what it might be?

May be due to a condition called Fordyce spots, which are harmless and do not require treatment. However, if you wish to remove them, you can consider using topical treatments such as Retin-A cream or laser therapy. Please consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and management.

Question 5

Can I use Melacare cream for skin lightening on my face? Also, does Melacare have any risk of causing skin cancer? Please let me know.

Accepted Answer

Melacare cream is a combination medication containing Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone. It is commonly used to lighten dark patches of skin. However, prolonged and indiscriminate use of hydroquinone can lead to side effects such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. Tretinoin can also cause skin irritation and sensitivity to sunlight. Mometasone, if used for a long time, can lead to skin thinning and increased risk of infections. Regarding the risk of skin cancer, there is no direct evidence linking the use of Melacare cream to skin cancer. However, it is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional and to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment to minimize the risk of side effects.
