Hello,Thanks for writing here.Dark skin tone occurs due to sun burns,iron and vitamin deficiency,stress etc.Use a good sunscreen at day time.Wash your face with a good oil cleanser like cetaphil.Take iron and vitamin supplimentation as per your doctors advise.At night you can apply depigmenting agent like niltan.Use it regularly.Go for chemical peels in case there is no response.Hope this will help you.Take care.
