Sunburn and tanning

2018-06-26 17:30:37
Sir, I am 30 years old (male) and have dark spot/black marks on my forehead may be sunburn as suggested by dermatologist since last 5 years and so I have consulted more than 10 dermatologist for the same and was suggested to use creams like: HHLITE, MELALITE,melacare,kojivit etc along with a sunscreen of spf 40 and so I have been using these since then.Although using these creams vanishes the black marks but as soon as I cease to use this the black marks get returned only within a couple of days
