I'm worried because my skin has gotten tanned, but apart from that, it's shiny and healthy-looking. I really want to make it fair again. What can I do to specifically deal with the tan and get back to a fair complexion?

wash your face twice daily and apply good moisturizer and sunscreen, if it doesnt gets resolved and becoming worse, visit dermatologist for evaluating the cause of tanning and appropriate treatment.

I'm taking FLUKA500 for a fungal infection I've had for the past 2 years and using MYCODERMC powder along with a citrazine tablet. I've been stuck with this for so long, and I'm not sure if these are the best treatments or if there's something else I should try. It's been quite frustrating. What do you think, is there a better approach to finally get rid of this?

That needs Physical examination,visit Dermatologist for the same
