How long should/can I use tri-luma to treat my face melasma?

Me myself
I was told by one dermatologist to use for two months( which I did back in October2019 to December 2019- and saw no results) I saw a second dermatologist this month who told me to start the tri-luma again and use for four months. I started two nights ago. Is this okay to use for that long and only a few months after already using it prior a few months ago? Will this thin my lip skin and forehead skin? Need advice on how and when to use tri-luma properly to get results and not ruin my facial skin
