I'm a brown-skinned girl and I'm really curious about the possibility of lightening my skin by around 3 or 4 shades. Is it even possible to do this for my whole body? I'm interested in knowing what procedures are out there and what kind of costs we're talking about.

I'm a bit confused about a product I've been prescribed. It's called Konaz ZP, and I was told it should be used as a shampoo. But when I checked the label, it actually says it's a lotion. So now I'm unsure about how to properly use it. Could it be possible that there's a mix-up, or is this common? How should I go about using it as a shampoo, if it's labeled otherwise?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
