Hi everyone,
I have fair skin (NC15), but have a problem with hyperpigmentation on my face (caused by too much sun as a child) - I've tried various approaches, including home microdermabrasion, mild acid peels, Skin Doctors White in conjunction with their day and night retinol treatments and also salon IPL treatments, but with very limited success. The marks disappear a little during the very dark winter months, but appear as soon as the February early morning sun hits my face, even with a spf 30 lotion.
I'm currently considering trying Environ skin care, or retinol creams such as tretinoin, but I'm a little concerned about causing damage to my skin.
If anyone has any suggeations I'd be very grateful!
Thanks!
