    Skin has lightened due to microdermabrasion
    I am a medium dark skin african american woman. I have acne scars on my face and back, I have used skin lightener on the spots on my back and microdermabrasion on my face along with clearisil & noxema. Now my face is two shades lighter then my arms arms and legs. Will my color in my face get back to normal. Aldso the scars on my back do not seem to be disappearing. Also due to pregnancy my butt and lower back thighs are extremely dark with strecth marks. What can I do to get my whole body one even skin tone
    PLEASE HELP

    When your face gets sun exposure, it will get back to it's original color. There are bleaching creams and lotions that may help fade the discoloration from the skin. However, stretch marks are hard to remove. Retin-A and alpha-hydroxy acid can improve the appearance of stretch mark, but will not get rid of them. Another treatment to consider would be laser surgery. If the products don't work, consult a dermatologist for treatment.
