Dear Patient , please consult a dermatologist in person as pigmentation is of different types and clinical examination is the best way to arrive at a diagnosis. Based on the type of pigmentation various treatments from creams, procedures like peels , lasers etc.,. can be done
Health Tips
Start using a doctor prescribed sunscreen as the regular use of a sunscreen aids in decreasing the pigmentation by itself and also prevents further pigmentation !
