Talk to experienced dermatologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
The dark marks you are describing are likely post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which commonly occurs after repeated injuries, wounds, or insect bites. This is a common condition and can gradually improve with proper skin care and treatment.
Next Steps:
• Apply a lactic acid or glycolic acid based body lotion once daily to help with gradual lightening of the marks.
• Use a depigmenting cream containing ingredients like kojic acid, azelaic acid, or niacinamide at night on the darker spots.
• Regular moisturizing and gentle exfoliation can also help improve the appearance of the skin.
Helpful Tips / Word of Caution:
• Improvement in pigmentation takes several weeks to months, so consistency is important.
• Avoid scratching or injuring the skin again as it can cause new pigmentation marks.
• For faster results, procedures like chemical peels or laser toning may be considered after consultation with a dermatologist.

Heya fellow Bengaluruean....

As someone who has fallen a lot in my childhood and has umpteen scars , I feel you.
However it's not that simple .. else Fair & Lovely would be the gold standard!! 😉
If you really do want to get rid of these, please send some clear pics of all the different areas via 📥 to preserve privacy.
One cream may not suit all the different types of scars and pigmentation in different body areas.

Health Tips
Aloevera gel is something off the shelf that you can use in the interim on all these areas especially after 🚿 on wet 💦 skin.. apply gently and leave on.
It will help as a nonspecific moisturizer and pigment lightening agent.
