Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

As per your query you have symptoms of patchy and tanned skin and facial wax exaggerated your condition. Need not to panic about it. Your skin sensitivity is high and leads to accumulation of UV rays of sun and in turn darkness and hyper pigmentation.

I would suggest you to start with medicated sunscreen i.e TAN CARE rich in SPF 30. Try to avoid sun exposure and if ever you have to go cover your face with wet clot. Take creams rich in Kojic acid and Azealic acid as they are most common natural bleaching agents. Safest and most-gentle bleaching agents is licorice extract which is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Apply mashed potatoes on face for 15 min. daily as it will lighten your color.

Dip cotton swab in tea tree oil and apply on face two times a day. Don't use steroids and don't apply chemical rich face-wash on face.

Drink alot water and multiviatmin supplements.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
