I was wondering how to treat skin discoloration. I have severe sking discoloration on my upper inner thighs. The skin is darker in areas. I use to heat up heating pad repeatedly and place it in my lap and I thought that may have been the cause. I have stopped heating it up but the skin discoloration is still there. I think it tends to get worse in the cold. I am not sure if my weight loss may be a factor.
I have skin discoloration from bruise, insect bites,cut or burn after healing it leaves a spot that never goes away. I am 39 years and I have had this problem since I was teenager. I use bleaching creams for a period of two weeks or less as long there is no sign of improvement I discontinue.
I am African American,and I was using this make-up for a while and discovered that it was making me develop a patch of skin discoloration on my forehead.I have stopped using the make-up for a while now and the patch is still there. It is lighter then the rest of my face. Is there anything that I can buy to reverse the problem?.
Hello,
This kind of discoloration can be due to hyperpigmentation of skin. This darkening occurs when an excess of melanin, the brown pigment that produces normal skin color, forms deposits in the skin.
Treatment involves hydroquinone, azelaic acid, corticosteroids, tretinoin cream and laser treatment. Pls discuss these options with your dermatologist before using them.Also then get the possibility of acanthosis nigricans ruled out.
to locate a small study showing that an AlexTriVantage laser can remove this type of discoloration. I used the doctor locator feature on the website to find a dermatologist in my area. The laser treatment wasn't painful or even very expensive. The discolored skin turned black after the treatment and flaked off after a few days. BTW, this is the same laser used to remove tattoos.
will skin discoloration after fungal infection between breasts that turned into brown spot in the place where rash was, become normal color soon?

Post inflammatory hyper pigmentation is a discoloration that is left on the skin after an underlying skin disease has healed. These underlying conditions skin infections,
allergic reactions or mechanical injuries.
The postinflammatory hyperpigmented lesions are located at the site of the originating disease after it has healed. The lesions range from light brown to black in color. Lesions may become darker if exposed to sunlight.
They are non-infectious and a natural occurrence on the body. Their treatment spots includes CO2 laser or electro desiccation, TCA chemical peels (temporary treatment), diathermy or laser vaporization.
The second possibility is of syringomas which are benign bumps caused by overgrowth of cells. Treatment of syringoma is by electrocautery , cryotherapy, laser or surgical excision.
Risks include failure to completely eradicate the vein or discoloration of the overlying skin. While surgical treatment with electrocautery is also an option, scarring could be a problem.
I am fair whitish, and I have dark skin discoloration under my arms and in the vaginal area. It looks so bad, i want normal skin on that area.
ve seen different therapies available, but I am not sure which one I should be looking for (i.e. IPL / Fraxel Laser... There were other laser types but I am not sure.)
Different places have different treatments and I just wanted to have a better idea what might remove this single flat mole, and cause minimal to no discoloration if removed.
Please guide me to the direction and type of professional I should look for.
I am not sure what this is, I used to have pretty clear skin, this discoloration started happening a year ago but i thought it would fade away eventually.
Looks like it has gotten worse.
I have recenlty started exfloiating, its been a month i feel clean & good after the exfoliation but my skin tone is still not even. I also wear sunscreen and moisturize regularly. I live a lifestyle of a bodybuilder, so my diet is very healthy and i am very well hydrated.
About 2 years ago i had a severe eczema outbreak on my face, which has left me with 2 large brown spots. The skin has been completely healed for about 1 1/2 year but the skin discoloration/scars will not go away! PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
