Health query I am 26 years old. I have used clobetasone ointment +tretinoin ointment for face for more than 3 years without knowing clobetasone is steroid (wrong doctor advice who said it can be used long term it will not cause any problem) now my skin was de pigmented and my new doctor said its because of clobetasone and she prescribed me aziderm gel and tbis ointment fo use in alternate days. When I searched about aziderm it said it cause skin lightening already my skin is de pigmented will it work or will it make worst. I am really worried as I already believed one doctor and that turned my skin depigmented (my new doctor ruled out that its not vitiligo. Its only because of clobetasone ointment. Will tbis 0.1% work for depigmentation.

Aziderm is also useful in steroid damaged face. It will take some time for skin to recover. The percentage of aziderm also matters. Upto 10% aziderm is good and recommended for steroid damage face. Do not worry. Continue using it.
