Hello,
Hydroquinone cream can be used to cover the affected areas and avoid applying to normal skin, as this will lighten as well. Also while using hydroquinone you should stay out of the sun or wear protective clothing and use a SPF15+ sunscreen when outdoors.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Hello,
Thanks for you reply.
My question is;
will the bleaching creams that contain hydroquinone bleach the normal skin AROUND the brown spots...will it bleach normal skin+ brown spots and I end up with uneven skin..
Thanks
Hello,
The brown spots that you have are due to post inflammatory hyperpigmentation after acne. The treatment for post inflammatory hyperpigmentation includes various skin creams like hydroquinone, azelaic acid, corticosteroids, tretinoin cream and laser treatment but they should be used only under a dermatologist’s guidance. If it still persists then you can go in for laser treatment, Chemical peeling or microdermabrasion.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
