General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Dark pigmentation of the skin on face is due illness, injury and inflammatory problems.
Discoloured skin patches on the face are due to a difference in the melanin levels.
Lomela skin cream have side effects like burning, dry skin, inflammatory reactions etc.,
since you have tried and failed with so many skin creams on your face, I would recommend home remedies
1)make a paste using turmeric and one teaspoon of lemon juice and apply on the affected areas at night and wash after 20 mins for three to four weeks.
2)To one tablespoon dried orange peel powder add one teaspoon each of lemon juice, milk and honey, make a paste and apply to the affected areas and leave for 20 mins and wash with luke warm water.
you can safely try this 3 to 4 times a week
