Sun tanned skin from a long period

2020-12-22 09:57:47
My face Is 6 to 8 shades darker than my rest of the body which is covered with clothes. I think it's due to sun exposure since my childhood. Can I match my face and body colour by treatments like lasers and chemical peels??Do they have any harm?
