Could you please suggest me ay ointments for pigmentation and also is metasone ointment is safe for skin ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hydroquinone: 4% Hydroquinone is the one we usually prescribed. Tri-Luma cream is the most popular. The efficacy depends individually. Metasone ointment is a relatively high potent cortisone ointment, not safe for areas above neck, skin folds, genitalia.
