I am 20 years old. In last 6 months my face skin has turned much darker all of a sudden. My face skin was 2 shade lighter than body but now it's 2 shades darker than my body. Even when I shave it becomes more darker. Now I have stopped shaving. I went to a dermatologist he gave a sunscreen and salicylic acid face wash but after month usage my face went more darker. I also used for berberis aquifolium for 3 months .i am using sunscreen for last 2 years and I apply it 30 min before going out ,but the doctor gave me new suncros sunscreen but after all these there was no change. I also wear hat and mask whenever I go out.

Reduce your sun & ultra violet exposure by wearing a sun hat, reduce monitor tv time. You can continue with the prescription but can use them intermittently. Give gaps between the treatment to allow the skin to regenerate and be chemical free.
