Problems with Dark Discolored Ankles and Acne Scars on my face

Ankle Pic Dark Ankles

Ankle Pic Dark Ankles

Ankle Pic Dark Ankles Other side of face Acne Scars

Hello Maria, I have major issues with certain parts of my body being much darker than other parts. I have attached a picture of my ankle to give you a better understanding of what I am dealing with.

Obviously I am embarrased and desperate to get rid of the discoloration on my ankles because it's so much darker then my legs and feet. I know the skin on my ankles is different from the skin on other parts of the body so can you please help me choose the best skin whitening products to use?

Also, if you could recommend some products that will lighten the inner thighs and buttocks I would really appreciate it.

My next question is regarding acne spots on the face. I use to have flawless skin on my face and now I have serveral acne scars. I have attached a picture of one side of my face. But one side is worse than the other. Will you please recommend which skin lightening products I should use to get rid of acne scars on the face.

And last but not least I have really bad hyperpigmentation dark spots on my back from acne. The acne is no longer an issue but the scars are still there and have been for years now.

I don't wear strapless, tanktops, or swimming suites because of this very embarrasing issue and I'm very self-conscious to let anyone ever see my back. Will you please, please recommend a product strong enough to get rid of the awful discoloration on my back.

Thank you for your time, I look forward from hearing from you.

M.

Answer:

Hi M, thank you for sharing your photos and story. Let me help you with your concerns, and start below with some useful info about your dark spots on skin. The suggested skin lightening solution is stated last.

The dark spot on your ankle is thick-skinned, so this can take time to lighten, between 4-8 weeks or so. Do your regimen 2x a day, morning and night. Use the skin whitening soap and cream. Soon as it starts to peel off mildly, reduce use of skin whitening products to 1x a day only until you reach your desired results.

For dark inner thighs and buttocks, you can simply use the skin whitening soap that will come with your kit and see if this can solve your problem for up to 4 weeks. Pay particular attention to the inner thighs because this area is thinner and mopre sensitive to friction. If after 4 weeks and you don't see an improvement, add the whitening lotion to your routine. Do the regimen at bedtime, when skin is at rest.

For acne scars on the back, the combination of the whitening soap and lotion may help, and use 1x a day. A good side effect of the skin whitener is the exfoliation of excess dirt and oil that eventually controls further blemishes.

For facial acne scars, use the skin whitening soap and cream, 1x a day, at bedtime.

No scrubbing or use of exfoliating towels, scrubs or loofah. This may irritate peeling skin during the skin lightening process.

Now here's the suggested solution -

Dermaline Complete Skin Whitening Set-2

Dark ankle - Papaya Soap and Whitening Cream
Dark inner thighs / butt - Papaya Soap
Dark acne scars on back - Papaya Soap and Whitening Lotion
Dark acne scars on face - Black Soap and Whitening Cream

Hope that helps, and puts a smile on your face today. :)

Skin around eyes
by: M.

Hi Maria,

I have been using the Dermaline Bleaching cream on my face but not the skin under the eyes because on another post you told someone not to use the cream around the eyes because the skin is too sensitive. My question is what should I do about that part of my face? I am in a panic because it's starting to look like I have dark circles under my eyes when I don't. If I stop using the cream will my complextion go back to it's original color and how long will it take? Or can I use the cream around the eyes just not as often? Please, please help because I don't like the way this is turning out. I don't want to look weird, sick, or blotchy.

Answer:

Hi M, you could experiment using around the eyes but as you said correctly, NOT too often - probably 1-2x a week, PLUS applying a rich eye cream every bedtime to contradict any dryness from the skin whitening cream.

If you discontinue using the skin whitening products, your skin can get back to its original skin tone, in generally 30 days or less.

Skin Peeling on face
by: M.

Hi Maria, the skin on my face has started to peel and I'm using just the cream. I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to stop it, or a certain type of cream I can use to stop the peeling. Also, when does the redness subside? Oh and 1 more question. I'm using the Dermaline cream on my ankles, and it's only been a few days, but should I expect peeling in that area as well?

Thank you,

M.

Answer:

Hi M, you can reduce application of the skin whitening cream to 2-3x a week only if the peeling is uncomfortable, and/or apply a moisturizer to relieve the dryness and subside the flakiness.

The ankles are thicker-skinned, so this area will take a longer time to peel and lighten. :)

Thank you
by: M.

Thank you so much Maria for answering all my questions, I really appreciate it. I have one more question to ask if you don't mind.

Is the skin whitening cream ok to use on the lips. I have a few dark spots on my lips from sun damage and my lips are very pink so the few dark spots are noticable. The dark spots are not like smoking scars, but like a few dark dots.

Answer:

You're welcome, M. Glad to help. :)

It's fine to apply the skin whitening cream on the lips - up to 2-3x a week only. Just make sure you moisturize lips at the end of the day.

Maria
