I have had white spots on my forehead for three months and brown spots all over my face. I am currently using Picon cream, Photostable sunscreen, Avarta cream, and Cetaphil cleanser. Is this combination of medicines and skincare products correct for my condition, or should I modify my treatment?
Your current regimen is generally appropriate. You are using a gentle cleanser, sunscreen, a brightening cream for the brown spots, and pimecrolimus cream, which is commonly prescribed for white spots. However, because you are dealing with two opposite pigment conditions (loss of colour on your forehead and excess colour on your face), managing them requires careful application. Avoid applying the brightening cream on the white spots, as this could lighten them further. Continue using sunscreen daily to protect both areas. Since pigment changes take time to resolve, please consult your dermatologist to safely monitor your progress and adjust the treatment if needed.
