Okay...Uhm, Im 16 Years Old, And Im Trying To Find a Skin Bleaching Place In California.
I Moved To Cali About 8 Months Ago From New York, & I Hate The Weather Out Here. My Skin Got SOO Dark. I Hate My Skin Complextion Now. My Skin Tone Is So Uneven Now. LOL, My Neck Is Like The Darkest Part On My Body. I Want This Surgery So I can Feel Better About Myself. Its Like, The Boys Out Here In Cali Dont Like Dark Skinned Girls. Boys Dont Even Pay Me Any Attention Out Here. I Hate It. I Dont Even Go Outside Anymore Because I Dont Want To Get Any Darker. I NEED This Surgery. I Dont Want To Be Michael Jackson (R.I.P) White. I Want To Be Rihanna's Complextion. If Anybody Has Any Information About a Dermatologist Or a Skin Specialist In California, Please Get Back To me A.S.A.P. ;) Thank You.

Wow thats a lot of self esteem issues, but I not aware of any kind of Skin Bleaching Surgery. At your age I wouldn't recommend it, but I say the best bet is to use Skin Lighting products such as Bio Claire. And use High SPF sunblock!

Good Luck.

never heard of skin bleaching surgery, but bio claire works wonders... For Real. the all their products and maybe whitening pills or something. and inform us if you find out more on this SBS

I heard of a skin bleaching surgery done in California and in Asia, but couldn't find the exact details on it. Makari worked really good for my face and body and had lightened me 3.5-4 shades, but that was when I could afford it as it is expensive. I'm back to using bio clair cream and lotion for my face and arms, it worked really good for my face but burt my arms and legs. My face has lightened some, but not as fast as last year I guess because of the high heat/humidity down here in the southeast. And maybe because I had stopped, then started again? I'm also using black soap to even out my skin, but I was using diana stalder kojic acid soap (really good) and then the l-glutathione soap until I ran out.

But, whatever you do make sure you use a really good sunblock at all times. I really like the Neutrogena spf 70 or 85, but the spf 55 works good too. This will prevent you from darkening/redarkening. I wish I knew some other good lightening and affordable products but that's why I'm here to hopefully find out and still doing my research.

pooter have you spoken to your parent(s) about how you feel about your self image?

surgery???? wow thats thats thats...... drastic......
