Hello,

I can understand your concern for tanning and darkening of the skin.

After reading your query I can make out that it is genetical melanosis which is quite common process and is related to physiological thing in most of us.

Basically our skin has a tendency to secret more color on exposure to sunlight and therefore the color producing cells to act on higher side.

Now tanning is quite a common process in persons of Asiatic origin and is rather beneficial to protect our skin from harsh effect of the sun.

In my patients I generally use Kojic acid creams to get better complexion. Other than this you can use a good sunscreen daily. Have best of your nutritive diet containing a lot of fruits and green vegetables which acts natural sunscreens.

All the best.
