For permanent skin whitening, you can consider using topical creams containing hydroquinone in combination with tretinoin and corticosteroids. One such effective brand is Tri-Luma cream. It is usually applied once daily in the evening. However, it is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as prolonged use can have side effects. Additionally, using sunscreen with a high SPF is crucial to prevent darkening of the skin due to sun exposure.
