I'm using a hydrotropic cream to sort out discolorisarion of facial skin from superficial burns. how long approximately before i start seeing change?

Cortisone cream: Hydrotopic is 1% hydrocortisone cream, and usually we try to stay away from steroid creams on facial skin. This is a mild steroid, any effect would take several weeks to have an effect. Please review with your doctor and ensure that you don't use too much steroid cream on your facial skin!
