Accepted Answer

Melamet cream contains a combination of three active ingredients: Tretinoin, Hydroquinone, and Mometasone. Prolonged use of this cream can have side effects and may not be suitable for long-term use. Hydroquinone 2% is a safer alternative for skin lightening. To maintain the fairness on your face and prevent it from turning black again, you can consider using a sunscreen with a high SPF daily, along with a gentle cleanser and moisturizer suitable for your skin type. Additionally, you can use a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone 2% under the guidance of a dermatologist to help maintain the fairness of your skin.
