Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Yes, you can use gel containing Kojic acid safely daily. But, it only removes extra tan from your skin. You can try using a Glycolic acid based face wash for better results of skin lightening. Make sure that you apply sunscreen every five to six hours. You can also get chemical peeling, microdermabrasion, and laser done from a dermatologist.

I hope this has helped you. Please feel free to reach me again, in case of further queries.

Thank you.
