my skin disfigured from mono, how to complete repigment?

Hello, please I was using the monobenzone since last year I bought through Depigdistrict group, this summer I gaveup because my skin colour kept coming back and back. Last year at first my skin look great, light but all of of sudden the colour started coming back this year, and has filled in except for a few spots. Body spot white but darker spot than my normal colour on the top of arm and face, melasma. What can I do? Please help, I no longer want their corrupt advices. I feel as this the worst mistake I made in life and cursed, does not want go away, remaining white patching.

It does seem strange that someone would go to all that trouble to start a thread and upload their photo knowing that it was fake. Only thing that comes to mind is that if it is not real, that they are trying to discredit DepigDistrict, but we already know about them, so can't think why someone would try to deceive us. Really does not make sense. I am no expert on photos, but hopefully this is a genuine post.......

fake photo or not the moral of the story is don't use mono unless you want to end up looking like the guy in the "fake" photo; mono should not be taken as a light issue. DepigDisastric please put your embarrassment aside and consult the nearest doctor before your condition worsens.

If you're looking towards covering up these patches well, consider using a light bronzer (used carefully) to match in with your olive skin tone. It ought to help with any 'confidence' or personal perspective issues you may face while waiting for proper treatment.

On a side note, what skin tone were you to begin with? (Before any color treatment including Monobenzone.)

I am a graphic and web designer as well Art Lady, and the authenticity of the photo did also cross my mind. But, I also thought why would someone go through all the trouble and their getting nothing from this and there are also many others out there who are considering mono or had their skin disfigured from mono but do not know how to go about fixing this prblem. so, no words are really lost, right?

Depigdisastric taking arbutin or any other tyrosinase inhibitor will only temporarily lighten the skin color of your skin that still has melanin. So, when not maintained or if the skin redarkens for anyother reason your white spots will only be more obvious once more. Ask your dermatologist if they can focus on treating your white spots to repig first to your natural color, and then how to safely lighten your skin. Read the links I posted, they inform on how it may be possible to repig the whitened areas on your body.

artlady agrees: There are many trolls out there and I am always questioning their motivation.The one on the arm,the big patch looks authentic but the rest does not,IMHO!

the spots in the picture look like it was created with some sort of paint airbrush tool also it looks like they tried to correct the lightening of the photo look at the left side it looks like after the person made that part with the airbrush they slid it down to do a dot :S

Regardless of whether or not the picture is fake, it's safe to say that these results aren't permanent and can (in the long run) be outdone.
