I have very dark spots on both cheeks. I have tried Neutrogena Chemical Peel along with Neutrogena Skin Block. This has not helped. Could you please suggest what skin whitener I could use to get rid of these spots?:eek:

U may have a skin disorder in the pigment production. See a dermatologist. Some cremes can make the spots worse

Jenni, yes I agree with mj, please see a dermatologist. Some cremes can make the spots worse. My Mom, has the same problem. They were "age" spots. Her dermatologist gave her crème specifically for the dark spots and told her it was hormonal related. It has since cleared up. Or it could be pigment related. Either way, it is best to be evaluated by a professional. Especially when it comes to your face.

It appears to be melasma. Melasma produces dark discoloration of the upper lip and often the cheeks and forehead.

The condition is produced by the combination of hormonal changes that may occur with birth control pills or pregnancy and sunlight.

Bleaching creams containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, kojic acid may help fade it. Chemical peels can also lighten melasma. It would be best to visit a dermatologist for a proper treatment for your skin condition.
