Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that you have tanning of skin and it can be due to excessive sun exposure and the area that is exposed to sun gets tanned while the covered area is lighter in colour..

I would suggest you to limit sun exposure and always apply a SPF 50 containing sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun..
You should apply creams containing Kojic acid, glycolic acid and arbutin for reducing pigmentation..
You can also apply Vitamin E lotion..
You can go for full body steam and gently scrub the skin with a towel to remove dead skin..
Wear full sleeved clothes when going into sun and always cover the face if possible to prevent sun damage..
You can also exfoliate your face and body with a body and face scrub..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
