Hi there, I totally understand that pigmentation can be a really difficult problem to get rid of. First and foremost, try to avoid sunlight as far as possible. Use protective clothing, goggles, umbrella , wide brimmed hat while going out. Use a Sunscreen with an SPF 25 or higher for sun protection. Sunscreen should be used daily after bath and in afternoon even if u stay inside. This protects our skin from artificial light and reflected light from windows atc. Also use sunscreen 30 min. prior to going out in sun and repeat after every 2 hrs on continued axposure.

Besides this, you can use a combination cream containing glycolic acid, arbutin and kojic acid at night.

Thyroid problem can also cause stubborn pigmentation. Get it checked regularly.

Take plenty of green leafy veg., good sleep and lead a stress free life. Remember many times it is not possible to get rid of pigmentation altogether but it can definitely be reduced by using the above mentioned remedies.

consult a dermatologist and never use any over the counter creams without consulting the dermatologist. Many times steroid creams applied for this problem can cause transient improvement but can be very harmful for skin in the long run
