Unlikely: The anti-inflammatory effect of this mild steroid cream is helpful and well tolerated by the skin. It is often used in this way for extended periods. Higher potency steroids might produce some tissue thinning, but this is not the case with 1%hc. It is hyped as "the strongest otc" steroid, but is actually one of the mildest ones we use.
