I'm using Skinlite cream, and its made my skin a lot fairer, but whenever I stop using it, my skin turns darker again. I've been seeing a doctor for about six months now, but my skin hasn't improved. My face is still darker, and I really dont know what to do next. Can you recommend any effective skin lightening creams or treatments? I'm getting really worried.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've been dealing with Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms for a few years now, and it feels like it's getting worse lately. I've been using Moisturex and Xerina ointment after my doctor recommended them, but it's been five months and I haven't noticed any improvement. I really want to find a way to get rid of this. Any suggestions?
