A member asked:

Is there any side effects for melacare and skin lite creams in our body.and i would like to know for what purpose it is actually used.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lighten skin: Like most creams you could be allergic to these creams and they can darken the skin instead of lightening the skin if you don't do sun protection.
