Hi,Veena ,thanks for query.Sudden change of complexion of skin must be becuase of some deficiency states.The skin color comes from within,the external factors do play a role but it is better to have look for some nutritional deficiency first.please talk to your doctor about any vitamin supplement you need and take good healthy diet.For pimples wash your face with mild antiseptic soap every day,take a course of antibiotics after taking to your doctor.bye.

Hi!Veena,
Welcome To HealthcareMagic forum,

To answer your first question that your skin complexion is becoming darker day by day.
I would like to say that there are various reason for that .To name few : excess sun exposure, use of chemicals which doesn't suit you like any moisturizing cream ,or even a fairness cream, use of a hair dye or hair color , consumption of certain eatables can also cause this etc.
So ,one needs to evaluate all this and treat you.To begin with you should start using a good spf sunscreen (preferably medicated one). You can use brite cream for this too,as it contains hydroquinone base.
Your second question regarding pimple marks :if you are still getting fresh pimples ,then you should first treat that and then go for the marks.For both ,I would suggest you to go for chemical peels which you should take at regular intervals.This would work on your complexion ,your pimples and your pimple marks too .Since its a peeling agent it work on all three areas.If you are still getting pimples then you can check your hormone status too .

Regarding your third question on brite ,being good or not.Well it contains hydroquinone ,which is a type of bleaching cream .It does help in reducing marks and improves complexion ,but you need to check with its side effects on timely basis.

I hope this answers your query,
if you have any further questions ,kindly write back to us.

regards,
Dr.Bharat chawda
