Hi, my baby has v fair face, fair hands and body and dark legs. She is 7 months. How long does it take for ones complexion to settle down? Do babies keep getting darker always? Or can they get fairer after 7 months? Can a human have different color tones in different body parts?

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Complexion can change with age , particularly in brown skinned populations like us (Indians). Dont worry, it can grow fairer and also darker at times. Moreover different parts of a person's body can have varied complexions, specially darker tones are noted in the exposed parts. Darker or fairer, your child will always remain beautiful and adorable!
