I've been dealing with post-acne pigmentation on my cheeks, forehead, and chin, and my doctor recommended using Glambak gel. It's been about a month now, and I've noticed some reduction in dark spots and an improvement in my skin tone, which is great. But I'm a bit worried about whether I should keep using the cream long-term to maintain even skin tone. Will my skin tone go darker if I stop using it? I do use sunscreen regularly, but I'm just a bit confused about what the best approach might be. Can you help me figure this out?

View allI'm looking to lighten my skin by 3 to 4 shades because I have a brownish complexion and really want a fairer skin tone. I've tried loads of natural remedies, but they're so slow and don't last. I'm really curious about a more permanent solution. Is there a full-body skin bleaching treatment available in Guwahati? If so, what's the cost involved? And are there specific steps I need to follow to achieve and maintain that lighter skin tone permanently?

I'm a bit worried about my skin. I've been using this cream for about 6 months, but I've started to notice my skin is getting really thin. Now I'm concerned about stopping it because I've heard there can be some scary side effects, like this thing they call permanent pig. Can you help me figure out the best way to stop using it without dealing with these side effects? I'm really looking for an alternative or anything that might help ease this transition.
