Skin darkening?

hey , ever since i was about 10 , 11 i noticed the skin around my neck started to darken and now my neck skin tone and everywhere else e.g face , hands is very different i use johnsons baby cream everynight and that lightens the skins up abit , but i was hoping if there is a natural remedie or cream that may clear this unsolving problem quickly , i also have sensitive skin








thanks

Skin darkening?
Skin tone varies, i suggest you continue as you are now, dont try lightening it with chemicals, especially as you have sensitive skin;
Reply:i would reconmend scrubbing your neck a bit more,


sometimes people are a bit shy with cleaning the neck cos its sensitive but you need to give it a good ol scrub love!
Reply:You could try using a daily gentle cleansing scrub or something like aapri facial pads. Exfoliators lift off the dead outer layers of skin which leaves the nice fresh new skin showing - which should be a bit lighter. I like aapri skin products because they never irritate my sensitive skin and don't cost afortune ...

The skin lightening (bleaching) products basically do what exfoliation does - makes your top layersof skin peel off. But I wouldn't try them on sensitive skin :s





If they are significantly darker patches of skin - perhaps you should see a dermatologist.








Best of luck: :)
Reply:Hyperpigmentation/melasma is quite often caused by hormonal changes and sun exposure. You can try hydroquinone 2% which you can get at most drugstores and pharmacies or 4% which you need a prescription for.





Obagi nu-derm is formulated to treat just these types of problems. Check out www.obagi.com and talk to your dermatologist about it.
