[|Human|] Hi I have been using Betnovate 1/5 cream on my hands and arms for approximately 4 years to treat an eczema/ psoriasis type rash. I have noticed resently that the pigmentation has been stripped in those spots and I now have white patches. I have stopped using the cream and the rash seems to have improved but not disappeared. Will the pigment regenerate or is the damage permanent?  I am a 35 year old female in good health.  Thankyou for your assistance.
[|AI|]  Hi thanks for writing here. Betnovate is a steroidal preparation which is used for treating eczema, it is a potent steroid and has to be applied under the observation of a dermatologist. Common side effects are skin atrophy, secondary bacterial infections like bacterial or fungal, loss pigment leading to white patches, steroid induced acne etc. Based on your history I can assume that you have got loss of pigment, stop applying cream now apply placenta gel two to three times over affected part, which will help faster repigmentation.Take care.
