Hello,

you are using Skin lite cream since last two months. As you stop using it your skin comes back to your original color. Skinlite cream is commonly used to treat and lighten dark patches of the skin caused by pregnancy, birth control pills, hormone medicine, or injury to the skin. This cream is not to be used more than the recommended dose and time period. Using it for a longer time may cause more harm than good like burning, irritation, itchiness at the application site.

You are suggested to get clinically examined by a dermatologist. Your dermatologist may recommend laser toning, dermabrasion, chemical peels, treatment by retinol or vitamin C. However, all may have side effects and may require to be done at repetitive intervals. Protect your skin from direct exposure to sunlight, take heathy diet. Healthy skin matters not the color.

Focus on maintaining heathy skin. Too much skin treatment may damage skin (thinning of the skin, increased visibility of capillaries, skin allergy, skin cancer, etc.). Maintain healthy skin by cleansing, moisturizing, exfoliating (from time to time) and avoid direct exposure to sunlight. Stay away from addictions if any.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
