Hello doctor,
Due to the use of Skinlite, I have sunburn on my face and now it looks like the dark spot. But I am using Kojivit gel for a dark spot. Is Kojivit gel good for the dark spot?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You must use a broad-spectrum sunscreen throughout the day. Reapply every 2 to 3 hours. Sun protection is important to treat facial pigmentation. At night you may use a Kojic acid cream (Kojic acid, Lactokine Fluid, Axeloglicina) 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 to upload a picture so that I can assess the condition visually and therefore guide you better.
