To remove tanning along with kojic acid you can take Vitamin C tablets. You can use that cream twice daily. In the morning use a sunscreen before going out in the sun.

Good afternoon. It is not advisable to apply only clindamycin as the sole anti acne agent over a long period of time due to the high risk of eventual antibiotic resistance.

Hello Treatment of acne induced pigmentation and spots are depend on type of spots. Deep scars can be removed by topical retinols and dark spots by combination of retinol, hydroquinone and steroids. Kojic acid is alos good but it is less effective than hydroquinone. Kolic acid should be conitiued for 2-3 months for good effect.

Don't use kojic cream. Use xylite cream at night which contains glycolic and lactic acid, both are safer than kojic acid in pregnancy.

Thanks for enquiry, the treatment used by you is yes for lighting purpose but without a sunscreen it's incomplete so start using a medicated sunscreen or contact if required.
