Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

Tanning is a common issue in countries with a predominantly longer summer. However, there are many effective ways to regain the fair complexion using depigmentation creams, chemical peels, lasers, etc. In addition to those, the most important step is to use a proper sunscreen with SPF 30. Depigmentation creams need to be decided based on the depth and darkness of the pigmentation. Kindly upload appropriate images, so that we can assess your condition and suggest you the necessary creams accordingly.

I hope it help.

Thank you.
