cure pigmentation - #14785

Dhruv

I am so confused and frustrated right now. I’ve tried everything to cure pigmentation on my face but nothing seems to work. I started noticing dark spots a few months ago after a really bad sunburn from a beach trip. I thought it would fade, you know? But no, it just got worse! I’ve been using different creams and serums that supposedly cure pigmentation, but my skin just feels more irritated. Dermatologist said to be patient and gave me a prescription for a lightening cream, but that stuff burns! And then, I read that those creams can make things worse if you're sensitive or don’t use sunscreen, which I always do but maybe not enough? I tried some home remedies too, lemon juice and all that, kind of reluctant to go full on natural route because I've also heard that it can mess up your skin even more. I don’t know how to cure pigmentation anymore, and it’s making me so self-conscious. Has anyone else dealt with this? How did you finally cure pigmentation for good? Or is there like a magical solution I’m missing? Just really desperate for any advice, thanks!!
