Hi,

You seem to have dark complexion due to genetic factor. And the exacerbated hypermelanosis may be caused by tanning effect of sun rays. Other factors like vitamin B12 deficiency,anaemia,endocrinal diseases..etc should be ruled out. You consult dermatologist for better evaluation of your problem. To reduce pigmentation,you may take vitamin C, nicotinic acid and glutathion tablets for long time. Kojic acid containing lotion may be applied at night . Sunscreen gel like sun mask aquagel may be used to prevent tanning effect of sun. Kojic acid soap like clearmin soap may be used for bathing. You may be benefitted. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
