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 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.

I'm sorry this had to happen to you. I hope others see this as a warning to stay away from such harmful products. I honestly wish you the best of luck. If I find out any information that will help your situation, I'll be sure to post it.

Thank you for the quick reply and assured, yes please let me know anyone what is best.

You may've to go to the dermatologist,for repigmentation,but please don't tell the dermatologist that you used monobenzone on your skin.. you may need puva treatments or another repigmentation treatment... ok... you be strong,through this OK... god bless,your heart... and one more thing,did you used it straight out 20%... you should have mix the monobenzone with some almond oil for the skin,you could have lighten even...

I would think it would be best to be open and honest with your dermatologist so that he/she can know the best way to treat you and to not misdiagnose you? There are a few repigmentation therapies that your doctor may suggest such as psoralen photochemotherapy, topical psoralen photochemotherapy, Novitil treatment, oral psoralen photochemotherapy, Vitilex herbal remedy, depigmentation, etc.

That's good to change your mind on mono, as it can be unpredictable. Mequinol 20%/tretinoin may be an alternative as it has the ability to lighten and depig, I'm unsure if it will cause white spots or not.

Wowo depigdisatric
Which member are you on the depigdistrict? :D

I am sorry for your experience.

I have warned SOO MANY, PEOPLE in here.

To tell them that Mono is not a skin lightener.

Did it lighten the whole body, before it became spotted?

And how much percent did u use.

Don't listen to Haiji... you need to see a dermatologist and tell them that you used mono... they can only help you if you are honest with them, its better that your skin goes back to normal with the help of a doctor then have odd spots on you. Once you correct this then do what you want but my god fix this or you might risk more damage...

No harm,the reason why I said that,I didn't want him to get in trouble or something,that a precription medicine.

His health is more important than getting fussed out for using something he should not have used. Covering up and telling stories will only make the situation worse if hese not honest to his doctor and may make his skin worse. It's a different case if he doesn't want to tell his friends, as it is none of their concern. But he should be open with his doctor and not cover up because the doctor is there to help him.

DepigDisastric this is the best way and I believe your skin can be repaired, so you should schedule an appointment with your derm asap so you can be on your way back to having normal healthy skin.

Thank yous Brown Desaml Golden
Yes I started with 5% and use the many formula they given including almond glow, 5% arbutin, and my skin did lightened evenily to the light patch on my left arm you see above, and stayed light all last year, only January this year the color became back. I have try 20%, 40%, now 60% from many places after theirs but still the color came back almost all the way now and darkest on my face and arm tops.
I am too ashame to go doctor I don't understand why the color camed back so fast but not at all at some spots. :(

See a doctor now before it's too late, dermotogists deals with this type of stuff... if you think you are embarrassed now think about when you get a girlfriend if you don't already and she asks what those things are on your body or why you never turn the lights on. See a doctor and BE HONEST, they may be able to help you get your color back and depending on the doctor they may educate you on the correct way to depig. Also, bring the mono to the dermotologist and let he/she get a look at it, it might be 2% mono and the rest is baby powder for all you know. Keep us updating, I wish you all the best.
