This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Due to the use of Skinlite, I have sunburn on my face and now it looks like a dark spot. However, I am using Kojivit gel for dark spots. Is Kojivit gel good for dark spots?

Thanks.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

You must use a broad-spectrum sunscreen throughout the day—re-apply every two to three hours. Sun protection is important to treat facial pigmentation. At night, you may use a Kojic acid cream (Kojic acid) rather than Skinlite (Hydroquinone, Mometasone, etc). This cream should never be used without the supervision of a dermatologist as it can cause irritation, redness, and other side effects like acne. Use it only if your dermatologist says after looking at the skin condition. I would request you upload a picture so that I can assess the condition visually and guide you better.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
