Hello, I would like to know what product will give really permanent lightening or depigmentation of the skin? Many years ago I tried the product Benoquin (Monobenzone 20%) but it produced some really bad white spots on my forehead that I had to get 3 round of dermabrasion for, to even out. I have seen 2 dermatologist who wanted me to use sunblocks and give a year for my brown areas on body to go away, but they never did. I have been using Herbalinn cream with some really good results, but as soon as I stop I see the brown spots come back. I would like to know what other options there are for a permanently high yellow or other pale color,tone as I am an entertainer and being outdoors counters all my efforts to maintain a radiant, rather than a sallow bronze complexion. Can Phenol Peel be performed on African American Type IV (olive brown) skin? I am naturally a spike lee complexion but I have been Will Smith complexion for a couple years now but its hard to hang onto especially in the hot summer.
