I'm noticing some dark spots on my feet, and it's kind of worrying me. There's no itching or anything, but I'm really curious about what might be causing them. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Dark spots on the feet without itching could be due to a condition called hyperpigmentation. This can be caused by various factors such as friction, sun exposure, or even certain medical conditions. To help lighten the dark spots, you can try using a cream containing hydroquinone 4% along with glycolic acid. Apply a thin layer on the affected areas once daily in the evening. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to prevent further darkening of the spots.

I've been using this cream for about 2 months now and I've noticed quite a few changes in my skin. It seems to have completely taken care of the tan and any blocked skin on my face, which makes me really happy when I look in the mirror.

- using any cream continuously for a long period can sometimes cause irritation or sensitivity. I recommend taking breaks or consulting a dermatologist to ensure it's safe for your skin in the long run.
