Hi I had used raw garlic to remove the mole on check but I got blisters and skin peel off but after few weeks a dark mark is developed there I thought that I will go itself but it s still same after 2 year I had tried a lot to fade away it..... Consulted the dermatologist followed the prescription of tri block to bright opti cream..... Though it was light for few days but soon it was like earlier..... Visited Kaya clinics but the mark still persist.... It s pathetic

Hi..

It looks like there is burning of the skin in that area where you have applied raw garlic causing hyperpigmentation that is leading to a black spot.

Also tribloc cream.is fine but avpid using Bright opti cream as it is a steroid and can have damaging side effects over the skin..

You can apply Kojic acid containing creams over the dark area.
Use a face scrub to scrub twice a week.
Apply Vitamin E gel over it.

Hope I have answered your query.
Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards.
