Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I have a question about skincare. My skin has been damaged from the sun and inconsistent moisturizing. I used to only do it once in a while, but not daily. My body is brown, but my arms and legs are dark. I have two tones of skin color, with light and dark spots. Also, I get contact dermatitis. My skin is sensitive. I would like to lighten up my dark skin and wonder what I can use. I have heard of Glutathione and Vitamin C pills. If that is not safe, what can I use? Please help.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
You can take a Vitamin C tablet if you wish, but glutathione is not recommended. The body will take time to come back to its natural color. You have a double color because of tanning. So do not worry. Just cover your face and arms while going out and protect them completely from the sun, or stay indoors.
Please share a picture of the skin tones so that I can assist better.
I hope this information will help you. Please revert in case of further queries.
Thank you.
