Dark skin patches on back
Hello doctor,
I am.having very big dark patches on my back as shown in the picture. The color gradually became dark and I have this from.past 5 to 6 years. I used to bath with very hot water and scratch my back while bathing and as i have very sensitive skin, color of my skin on these areas gradually became too dark.
Please suggest possible remedies to get rid of these marks.
Please suggest any ointment for better results.
Also please suggest if any laser treatment available.
