Detailed Answer:
Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that our face is generally darker than other body parts as face is always exposed to dirt and pollution.

You can put more efforts to maintain healthy and fair skin tone by using some home remedies and taking iron supplements. You can find some beauty tips in the following link http://healthmonastery.com/2020/02/17/5-amazing-home-made-coffee-face-packs/.

Few more tips:
1.Cover your face well when going outside
2. Scrub your face twice a week
3. Eat healthy and iron rich food
4. Do not sleep with your make up on
5. Clean your face daily with a good cleanser or milk .

Hopefully this information will guide you properly.

Kind Regards
Dr Bhanu Partap
