Acanthosis Nigricans Hyperpigmentation

2018-06-23 14:32:18
I m suffering from acanthosis nigricans. My stomach and my whole back body is very dark. Earlier neither my stomach was dark not my back body. Also earlier I was very lean. I known its all because of excess fat and weight and I have fat around my belly and I am also OVERWEIGHT. I just want to ask if I loose excess fat and weight then whether it will fade away or it will be there forever!!! And if it will fade away by loosing weight than how much time it will take to fade away?? Please help.
