Desire to have a lighter skin is common. However getting lighter skin tone than one?s natural tone is difficult. Sunscreens can be of a little help. Various therapies like glutathione, peels, creams, are available for this purpose. Drawback is that they are costly and need continuous maintainance as long as you desire the improved tone. Consult a dermatologist and discuss your possible options. We have seen people landing up with irreversible skin damage after the use of over the counter fairness creams. So kindly donot self medicate.
