I'm really curious about something. I've been using Fair and Lovely cream for the past six months, and I'm wondering if there are any side effects I should know about. Also, I'm a bit worried that if I stop using it, my face might get darker again. Is that something I should expect?

Fair and Lovely cream contains ingredients like hydroquinone, which can cause side effects such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin with long-term use. It is not recommended to use hydroquinone-containing products for extended periods of time without medical supervision. If you stop using the cream, your skin may revert back to its original condition, but it is important to transition to a different skincare routine to maintain the results. I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and guidance on alternative skincare products.

I've got this issue where the skin on my stomach and back is much darker than the rest of my body. My face and arms have a clearer and more even tone. I've tried all sorts of home remedies, but nothing seems to work. I even went for a chemical peel, but it only made a small difference for just a few days. I'm really puzzled and a bit worried. What could be causing this uneven skin tone and how can I effectively address it?
Normal.
