    My monobenzone.
    There isn't no way to escape from some sideffects
    Like uneven skin... dark patches near light patches and of course irritation and burning
    All of this sideeffects will appear on your skin!

    My skin got really bad last 3 weeks.. I looked like a monster..
    But its changed I read dr. Vikki Ashley Prescription
    She basically applies almond glow and on it the mono cream
    I did it with olive oil instead the almond glow.. and my skin recovered
    The dark patches fades away nicely.. my skin doesn't get burned from the mono
    The irritation is only for 2 min after I put the mono
    And the most important thing is the absorption
    This week results was so fast.. its amazing
    http://www.withstyle.com/articles_vit2.htm

    Again I don't recommend monobenzone at all!!
    Its hard to be with patches even if it only for temporary period

    By the way..
    If you got dark patches.. put the mono only on them! Till the skin recover

    .. dont use mono at all... but if you will.. put it on only after you put some oil on your skin!
    Be curfell it really dangerous..

    Hey Super Shallow where are you these days? You simply dissappeared after telling us how things have not worked out with mono.. you are using olive oil now how is the progress going ?

    Kindly keep us updated as we are all awaiting your response on how things are going for you with the mono

    Hlaf of my body is yellow/pink and the other is black..
    Spots. Patchs I'm all disfigured..
    And the mono doesn't help me now at all
    It's like not effective anymore..
    People stare at me... friens told me I look ugly.. and that I need to stop what I'm doing
    My family think I'm sick (they don't know the real reason.. mono)

    Hi super

    Sorry to hear about your expereince, I only use high dosage hq now it has helped me to even out the white spots and has given me a high yellow to white undertone that I love so much, I am only on hq and kojic acid cream right now and its working great.

    Take care and don't kill yourself your skin will recover

    Yes,
    I have that problem too! But I'm trying things
    I was told a tanning booth would work... still thinking about that. Icant read the article. It may have been removed(?) what percetage did u use? I didn't get irrated or burned from mono. How long was u on mono? Well if I can help... I understand I stay covered except my hands which isn't that bad... thank goodness it's winter I wear long sleeves.
    I tell myslef it could be worse. Ive seen people w vitiligo. I saw one lady & I jumped she scared me.

    Lol mpk you are funny, I stopped with mono like a few weeks ago I used it for almost a year, on and off because I got pregnant, the hq evened out my skin tone nad gave me a high yellow 2 white undertone, I am not sure if I could have gotten that tone without prior mono use, it looks really natural and my lips are also lightening so I don't have to waer lipstick all the tim. Best part is that the hard to bleach areas knuckles, elbows, back of neck have also lightened.
    I first saw results after 1 week on hq 20%.

    The skin peels a lot for a few days the skin was like dropping off I had to keep moisturizer to hide the peel.

    Lightening buddy

    Doesn't HQ over 5% cause hyperpigmentations?

    See?? Had I known where to find a large amount. U will stop peeling after your skin goes through 2 cycles that's about 12 weeks.

    I paid 20.00 for a pill bottle. It scared me then. My scar turned red which meant it was lightening. I freaked & stop using it. I gave it away. It was kind on dry. Not very creamy. Did u mix something in yours or just out lotion on top? Correction u might need "crisco" or cooking oil to maintain the peeling!! When I used 8% plus retin. The nutrogena 55% sunscreen helped a lot. I had to keep in my purse. I was a sunscreen & vaseline addict!

    I went to my dermatologist yesterday and he told me that I got Vitiligo
    I didn't tell him about the Mono..
    But look what happen I cause myself Vitiligo and the problem is that I don't have Vitiligo!!
    Which means that my skin won't start to bright slowly..
    What the hell should I do?
    I look like a monster!!

    We both know we look like that but we know what we did. I think spotty said her Dr gave her a cortisone injection. She's fine now. My dr suggested it but I said nope it will put a few lbs. ( VAIN)on me. Then he said he wasn't sure it would work. R skin has to heal.

Has anyone tried monobenzone? [ 2 Answers ]

Well, I´ve been told that the best cream for permanent skinwhitening is the monobenzone. If you use it right it can give you amazing results, but I do not know where to find it since it is hard dermatologists give you a prescription for it... Has any one used it? Where can I get it?
