    Hi, why don't use mono again, how many percentage have you used? I heard this a normal thing.
    Have you gotten darker when you started, because from what I heard, it is good to darken first and depig second because this how mono works, but I think on your stage from what they are saying is resistance, maybe you should try the cycle of depigmentation again

    Give bio claire a try, their prices are good, let us know when you start to see results
    There web sites you ask a chemist, or a dermatologist online, some are free some are not, you can ask a chemist, I think a chemist would give a better answer, your skin now is different from the skin you've always had, mono changes the structure not like other skin lightener, it has different characteristics'
    You've used 50% the whole year? That is crazy, that is too high, you shocked your skin, a chemist will give you the right solution
    Retzy (a member) has the same problem I think, used it for a year and she/he got so dark, read this

    What people don't know is monobenzone work on normal skin it kills selective hyper-active melain. And that's just normal skin . Onloy vitiligo suffers have a better chance of killing pigment permantly. Normal skin will ALWAYS PRODUCE PIGMENT NO MATTER WHAT YOU USE. YOU Cannot KILL MELAIN. ONLY SUPPRESS IT.

    Hi, gloomy I hope that your better I read your post and tried it anyway, this is my last chance before laser, no matter what I use the pigment keeps coming back like this 20% benoquin my face has darken a whole lot starting to get discouragebut its only been 3 weeks and some say you will darken first and some say that you want . I am only appling it to the burn part to see what happens. Tri-luma is a good product to try its fairly new , it works as long as your skin hasn't been traumatize. Don't WANT TO BE LIGHT ANYMORE OR PALE OR YELLOW JUST WANT TO BE ONE COLOR ALL OVER

    Once you have reached the dsired colour, you have to apply it only 1 or 2 times a wekk, but still need to apply it, otherwise you possibly get hyperpigmentation as in your case, the main reason for this is because vitiligo patients successfully destroy all melanin after using this , but non-vitiligo patients need to be aware with the fact that they have no pigmentation problems to start with and your body will only react to something like this, so I would recommend using benoquin less frequently to keep the results.
