I be using monobenzone,soon.. I'll keep you guy's update.. I'll be using it with a skin oil...

Are you sure it's safe to use?
Will you be using it on your body?
I've seen your head shots and your face is awfully light already.

I'm going to start using mine in January.The one I'm using is safe it was made by professionals.:)

Yeah it safe to use,nikkicute,I am not making it myself,I am getting the tubes,made by the manufacturer,only using it with some almond oil,not right out of the tube,no I am not going to apply to my body,monobenzone have a systemic effect.. and it made by professionals...

You are already light so how light are you trying to get

haiji if you are already light why don't you use HQ at a high percentage instead? About 6 percent on the face and 10 percent on the body should work:) my monobenzone cream has 20% Monobenzone,
4% Arbutin ,and Tretinoin:). I'm about Nicole Scherzinger's color http://fileserver.glam.com/glampress/beauty/Nicole-Scherzinger-8.jpgmaybe a shade darker I want to be vanessa hudgens color http://www.topnews.in/files/Vanessa-Hudgens.jpgWhich celebrity's color are you close to haiji?

I am like usher,complexion,but a shade or two lighter.. and I get call him all the time,look-a-like...

I will not use it long...

I thought you weren't going back to mono because of the previous spots? Have you considered hq 4% and retin-a? Or following something similar to Lil'Greg's regimen where he used low percentage of mono/almond oil along with arbutin?

Don't do it. That's all I'll say. I'm exiting this thread.

i will not use it long...

From what I've read with even minimum applications things can go wrong.
There is a member here who after discontinued use spots kept showing up weeks after, even on area's where she/he didn't apply it.

Why does everyone think if you mix a cream with oil it will somehow protect them from bad side effects?

That what the experts,told me,doctor's...

that what the experts,told me,doctor's...

Are you serious? They actually told your doctor that?
The oil will protect you:confused: Which oil?
I don't know,. I'm getting a bad feeling about this.

I've read that mono is highly unstable and is not even being manufactured any longer. How do you know your getting the real thing?
You do realize this is not a lightener but for depig.

Like skin oils,like,almond,castor oils,its in a tube,manufactured from india,in the tubes,the website I go to,people using it with good results and some are vitiligo pateints,this the real deal,you scary me away from it now,I spend a lot of money for tubes I order.. the oil don't protect,it for you to lighten evenly,without the spots,I no monobenzone I used it before on my shoulder,to test,whaen I apply it put a light,little spot on that area when I stop it went away,it was short in term.other depigment agents don't cause light/white spots but monobenzone,trust me you no you got the real thing when you see that...

I'd also say don't do it... There's no guarantee you'll get good results with mono on perfectly normal skin... some people initially have good results but they always end up with messed up skin afterwards... mono works great for Vitiligo patients cause their immune system is already getting rid of the melanin and mono just help speed up the process whereas the skin of people without Vit will put up a fight against this unknown substance and produce more melanin to counter the effects of mono; which will eventually lead to patches of light and dark skin... If you're just trying to lighten, mono is not the way... Anyway, it's up to you... good luck...

He could choose not to do it. But everyday he'll wake up look at his skin, and ask "What if i did it". Or he could do it and it might not work totally, but to me that's the same out come. You'll be unsatisfied either way. I say if it bothers you that much, do it. But make sure you have the positives on your side. And commite yourself to it. Let's not all think negatively here, let's wish him luck. I really do hope you are sucessfull:)

Ummm haiji I can only advise you based on my own expereince, Don't USE MONO, you'll get white spots like me then you'll be looking for something to help you get rid of the spots. If you want to lighten use a High HQ but leave mono alone

When are you suppose to see results?

It suppose to burn and sting,letting you no that it doing it job,I should see results around six weeks,may be less than that,my color just look radiant now...

... no comment :(

Keep us updated,

My skin still even,it's a little dry now,no light/white spots,none what so ever.. my complexion look very radiant,I wash my face and pat dry it,skin starting to peel a little bit,starting to look a little yellow,and some people a tend to lighten faster than other's with monobenzone... I'll keep you guy's updated...

Seriously don't. I am one of the people who had bad experience and I had to travel outside of america to be treated because dermatologists here will not prescribe a quick fix and it was impossible for me to wait for the slow skin recovery process so I had to see someone outside of here. It took long to get back to where I was so please be careful

He won't listen so let us know when you start to see the spots

Haiji, why did you not use the mequinol and tretinoin?? Even including hq 4% if you like. You can depig with 20% mequinol and possibly get spots at the high percentage, but at least it is known to be safer and not guaranteed to have spots. And mequinol at a lower percentage will lighten your skin. In a few months time your going to then create another thread complaining about spots that will not fade.

And then 4% hq

thats what im using, but only in 10 percentage

How is your mequinol coming along, have you lightened any and how long have you been using this? Seeing Dessaml's pics only tempts me more to also give it a try and add it to my regimen, but I have sensitive skin even the Likas soap I'm still getting used too... lol, maybe in a few months for me I'll give it a try. Dermatologists claim that it is even safer than hq..

I was not planning using monobenzone that long,for a couple of months,it working fine I've no vitiligo/depigment spots none.and I no I been using it a close to a month now,the only thing is my facial skin&neck is very dry.guy's please don't scare me away from it,if it depig me or whitening me that what I want,if I get the spots in the long road it want bother me!OK where can you get mequinol in a tube,from.. thanks guy's!and one more thing the ones who,have problem with monobenzone,they try and compound or make it they self,I not with that powder,or compounding junk,that's why they have darkening or others side effects,I am using it right out the tube,manufacturer.so of us don't lighten evenly,with monobenzone some of us do,I am guess I am one of the lucky one's!But thank guy's!

To be honest with the mequinol, I haven't been using it for so long
Like a month and 15 days,

So I got a long way to go, but It seems to lighten very fast in that short period,
I also used HQ and Retin A, earlier so yes I am lightening,
But I have not reached my goal yet.

And where I live in Scandinavia, there is literally no sun, right now,
So the winter, it's the best time for lightening.

I bought my mequinol from goldpharma

Does anyone know if it is safe to use monobenzone 20% with tretinoin 1?
