Hi lybrate-user, you need to understand the pathogenesis of melanin production. There are melanosome in the inside deep layer of the skin. So dust to penetrate inside is out of question. Its the uv rays which can penetrate and activate the melanosome to secrete melanin. For further queries you can visit to any plastic surgeon.
