Hi as a baby, your son had fair skin tone. But as he grows, there is a lot of sun exposure in schools, sports, traveling and that leads to darkening of skin. If you compare his sun exposed parts of the body with skin of his abdomen, you will definitely notice difference. For now, just use a good sunscreen for him with at least spf of 30. Apply it every three hours, daily, even if he is at home. This will definitely help reduce his tan. After 1-2 months, you can have a direct video consultation to have some other products added to his skin care. Until then, don't use demelan for now.
