Hi! you are doing what many people do for pimples and spots. Unfortunately, in the long run betnovate c will do more harm than good to your skin. Betnovate is a steroid and if used for long it can damage your skin, thin it, discolour it, make it more prone to pimples, redness, infection, sensitivity to sun and other skin products. Please consult a dermatologist to guide you how to safely stop this cream and treat your pimples effectively.
