I am 23 years old female. I have used tacrolimus for eczema, now my eczema has gone but at that time some pigmentation occurred on my nose and cheeks and surprisingly it occurred in a day only surely due to sun rays. I think it is drug induced pigmentation. And whenever I go out in the sun it becomes more darker, pls suggest me some treatment for this pigmentation. And a good sunscreen for sensitive skin.

You can apply aloe vera juice/gel from its leaf (fresh, not from readymade gels available in market) on your face. Remove skin of an aloe Vera leaf. Take /scoop out gel. Apply this gel to your face skin. Wash with plain water after an hour. Stop using soap on face. Instead take a spoon of milk, add a pinch of turmeric (haldi). Mix n apply on face with the help of cotton. Leave for a few minutes then wash off. Apply moisturizer like coconut oil. Simple Honey Mask--Before applying this mask, rinse your face with warm water to open up pores. Then apply honey and leave it on the skin for 30 minutes. Rinse the honey off with warm water; then rinse again with cold water to close the pores. Use some sunblock with SPF (at least 50) every time you go out in sun. Apply it 30 mins before going out Use umbrella when going in sun. Wear full sleeves cloths Drink plenty of fluids. Don?t be stressed. For more details consult online
