Hi guys,

It seems really funny you know that whenever I have been online- the most I have actually read is about people who know people who swear by benoquin or monobenzone(?? )Why is it that I rarely find first hand experiences to this .
I mean guys I'm 23 years old would like to use it but am darn scared because there is just no one who gives upright answers to the same... are there people who really haven't suffered from vitiligo at all when they use this to brighten up??

The only few first hand experiences I have been through say they are suffering from vitiligo and waiting for things to get better... anyone ready to help me quell the thoughts in my mind ?

Finding people who have successfully lightened their skin is not easy because it's not a much talked-about subject in the USA. It's like, not something you're supposed to TELL people about.

It's like, identity-changers. In a way it's sort of an identity change for people, so they don't want to come forth publicly and say, "Hey, I used to be dark and get treated like 'black' everywhere I went, I couldn't even get a job in my field I'd studied in college for both a Bachelor's and a Master's, now I used **** for x number of years and all that's changed. Now I'm albino-white and can get any job I darn well please!"

It's not something people are going to willingly come out and broadcast over the 6:00 news, sort of thing!

For one thing, who in their right mind would keep the "before" pictures around? You'd burn them, if the stuff actually worked and you looked BETTER, now wouldn't you? Who in their right mind would want to be reminded of what they looked like before?

Because it works so fast people are excited, I tried it and I was excited at first but then it only lightened in spots so I stopped and got dermabrasion. I believe all the 2nd-hand accounts are just scammers posting false testimony, especially sharefun1980 its all over the internet, they are selling fake steroids now I just heard. Be really careful its only going to work if you have a skin disease like Vitiligo.

I purchased Benoquin from Sharefun... and it is working.

Samay · Jul 22, 2007, 11:51 AM

Hi guys.. samay here once more.. well I have been using benoquin cream for almost two whole months now.. and I see nothing happening at all...
Nothing

First it lightened a small patch on my penis which was not painfully noticeable so I thought it was working... now things have just plateaued..

I'm so upset... I have always been a fairer section of the indian sort... when people see me now they are like why are you getting so tanned...

My uncle who comes down from dubai is shocked and says I'm not the same samay he has been seeing all along... I'm so upset... depressed... my friends who I was once lighter than are looking fairer and getting all high on the fact that they are looking more noticeable than me...

Why isn't it working for me at all guys ?

Depressed as hell ---- samay

Here's another depigged guy
depigged - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
His After photo is so much more handsome, even though he has the same ugly nose, it's amazing! I know I was desperate after seeing Jazmin and Omar's and other's pics, but I think they all had a little vitiligo. Monobenzone only works completely for people with Vitiligo. So I don't want to have the bad results of darker skin areas like Simmy and Samay. I've done my research and I conclude only Benzylarbutin is capable or lightening dark brown skin in the long run. Did you see how much it cost's at Sciencelab.com?

Huh?? Excuse me my case is not that of simmys... get yourself corrected I don't have white patches anywehre on my body... all my problem is that instead of getting a few shades lighter I'm a few shades darker... even toned darker skin... get that?? Stop concluding wihtout reading first .

Now what I'm seeking is some assistance with benoquin not your " get rid of it " . For all I know you must be one of those people who love benoquin... but pretending to simply hate it and scaring others away from it for your factor of exclusivity.

I have used benoquin. However, it took two tubes before I saw any results. I bought mine from an actual pharmacy. I also bought from depig.com. This did not work for me, but the pharmacy one did.

Yes, your problem is with DARKER skin as a result of using Benoquin, whether its even toned darker or not. Git that?

Pretending to hate it? Benoquin is ONLY for people with Vitiligo. Stop trying to encourage people here to experiment with prescription-only meds without a prescription, so you don't feel as alone.

I can see how you are so mad that Benoquin is fighting back feircely already before you even saw any much lightening. From what I have read elsywheres, most people get fast short-term lightening followed by problematic long-term darkening. That's called DISFIGUREMENT.

Does anyone else think it's wrong to use Benoquin unless you have Vitiligo? I sure do, and I think all doctors say the same. So why are you still using it whilst you continue to go even darker. Are you that desperate?

Hi Samay,
Where did you purchase the formula from? It is possible you have a fake cream.

I saw on depig.forumup sharefun is advertising all over

harmony8 · Jul 26, 2007, 03:23 PM

Hi Samay,
Where did you get Benoquin? I am looking for it, but the company ( Valeant ) that makes it stopped producing it in Jan. 2007. They said they will bring it back again.

I have been using Benoquin since 1989 and it takes a long time to work. But it works very well. I used it to lighten the skin on my face. But since it's not available I am not able to use it right now and the skin on my face has started to repigment again.

This product does not permanently remove pigment. Soon as you stop using it, the pigment comes back rapidly like within a month

Its always like that on every furom expect for the depig site I found some answer dere but sumone hacked it and deleted everything.but ye don't use monoyou turn white or what ever color you want for a while then regain the color again ut your skin will be uneven.just try benzyl arbutin from herbal in or depig.com.its like mono but is for people with out vitialgo

Samay · Aug 11, 2007, 11:08 PM

HI neole sorry haven't been around a lot here... I got my cream from indian pharmacies which have almost stopped selling the cream...

It hasn't worked at all

The earlier lady is a little offbeat caroline is it >.? Disfigurement is surely when you turn a lot darker from a sudden lightened state

My case is darkening evenly across the entire body by at least four shades.. its not disfigured me.. some people think the colors lovely... but friends seen me lighter don't like it

That's the scene
So I don't hate mono or curse it for antyhing... its not doing what I want but its still fine as long as it doenst really harm...
