Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dark skin tone which is sometimes due to hormonal changes, stress and excessive production of melanocytes. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply vitamin C serum as it is also very effective for skin and it can be use at night . It nourishes the skin and prevent infection. I would suggest you to : -
- Wash your face with mild soap twice a day .
- Exfoliate your facial skin once a well to remove dead skin.
- Apply broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 which going outside .
If condition persist or doesn't start getting better i a month then consult dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment .
Doctor may recommend procedure like laser therapy, chemical pelling or microdermabrassion.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
