I am fair till age 12 after that I used to play in hot sun now my age is 17 my skin became too dark. People's say you will regain your colour as you grow on. Are they correct? If not what can I do to regain my original colour.

Its possible to achieve your basic color back by taking a skin lightening treatment regimen for 6-8 months, consisting of sunscreens, skin lightening creams, antioxidants and multivitamins and external treatments like peels. After this you will have to maintain the results by application of sunscreen and moisturisers daily. A combination of all these treatments with Q-switch laser can help you achieve lightening of the pigment. Stick to the treatment for 8-10 months and take optimum sessions of the laser.
