Thank you for your query on this platform.
It may be initial phase of vitiligo a hypopigmentary disorder.
Avoid smoking and taking very hot food or drinks. Avoid biting or licking lips often. Take antioxidant tablets.
You can try initially with a steroid cream like Fluticasone and Tacrolimus ointment after consulting your dermatologist. Consult your dermatologist for examination and management.

|Hi doctor,
I do not smoke. How much time it will take to recover? Should these medicines need to be used with care?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Yes, it is better to be taken under supervision of a dermatologist as I said earlier too.
- These are usually tried first. It may be of help to some or at least stabilizes the progression.
- The time cannot be assured. If it does not respond other options like graft may be considered too.
