Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am using Melawash face wash and Lumise C gel for the last six months. Is it safe to use such a long time? Previously my face was very fair; suddenly, it became dark.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
No, do not use it daily. Is your skin type is oily, dry or scaly, or a combination of both? Is it sensitive? Is it prone to acne? Do you have any history of atopy or allergies? Do you have any contact with irritant? Did you use any steroid cream on the face? Did you have any prolonged exposure to the sun? Do you have any history of photosensitivity? Attach the picture to assess skin tone and guide you accordingly.

Hi doctor,
Thanks for your reply. I have oily skin. Currently, I am using Lumise C cream. Previously the face was full of acne, later resolved somewhat. Once face color is fair, but after some time, it became black.

Thanks for your reply. My primary request is to get my face fairness back. And some times, my mother will say that my face has become very rough, and my hands and legs also look dry.
