I know that a lot of you are using monobenzone or compteplating on using it. well i'm hear to tell you that after 1yr. of monobenzone use my skin became disfigured. my arms, face, legs, cheast . is patch work of pink, brown, large patchess. and i've been going to dermatologist about it and they say that the the damage is irreversable. I just don't know what to do.

It started off good for a while about 7mos. then at the 8th month i noticed patches that were pink like a raw pink on the sides of my face inner thighs arms. and they were so sore. and my skin just kept peeling, peeling, so then after the pain subsided then that very raw red area became darken . And a ver noticeable darkening.

i'm so damn sorry and regret using monobenzone. my only hope now is to find a plastic surgeon that can hopefully fix my skin back.

I just don't know what to do. I just don't know. and that a lot of money that i invested in a product that i thought was going to lighten me but only damage my skin badly.

thought i share for those before it becomes to late

Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I'm very sorry to hear about what happened and lets hope members will think twice before using monobenzone. Especially the high strength one (20%).

my friend 20% should never be thinked about, its a result of imprecise research, gloomy am not trying to hurt you but yo would have researched on web more, gone little deep inside the medicine on web and not just would have dependent on this forum, here are people not experts, people like us and i dont think people who are now white have ever used 20%, that is poorly bad research

To all people here, consider your dermetalogist help, pamper him/her, he will give you hints about whitening taking monobenzone, mequinol and arbutin, there are secrets in medicine but they dont tell you, yes i will think 100 times taking even a drop of these chemicals but dont forget its medicine and there are ways of lightening, i know it as i have heard insiders in bollywood saying some big actress have used chemicals to en their skin, see their before and after pics

Personally, I would never use monobenzone as it's really for patients suffering from vitiligo. There are alternatives out there. Such as arbutin, kojic acid and so on.

people without virtiligo are not supposed to use mono! that is the first thing you see when you google search it, unless you want to disfigure yourself. I hope all those people who are talking of using it read this and learn from it. My friends sister used it too and she has pink patches all over her body and face. It is not worth it!

gloomy123

It's not worth it. it's going to cost anywhere from $15,000-$25,00 to fix my disfigurement of my body. and i have to go to New York to get the surgery done. and even then i was told by the doctor that it won't be completely back to normal. I'm currenlty trying to get the money . that's a lot of money along with the travel expense to get there. Oh my god i should'nt never messed with that stuff. listening to other folks. but i can only blame myself.

I used to be pretty but not anymore. You just don't know how i feel.

mona4white

gloomy if you dont mind me asking but can you share with us your before and after pics so that all (including myself) dont even now think of using that hazardous chemical, only if you wish

gloomy123

NO!. I'M NOT COMFORTABLE AT ALL SHARING THAT HIDIOUS SIGHT. I don't want you all to see me. I'm embarassed, and ashamed of my looks and myself. NO, NO, NO.
