is there any surgery for skin whitening - #20141

Vivaan

I am really worried about my skin lately. I’ve always struggled with dark patches and uneven skin tone, and it makes me feel super self-conscious. I did some research and found that some people are asking, "is there any surgery for skin whitening?" which got me wondering if that could be an option for me. I mean, I’ve tried everything from creams to various home remedies, but nothing seems to work. Last month, I went to a dermatologist who mentioned stuff like chemical peels and lasers, but surgery sounds like it might be more permanent? There’s this part of me that’s just really curious if surgery is the actual solution. Would surgery for skin whitening be effective, or does it carry risk – like, would it leave scars or change skin textures? And how long does it take to see results if there is an option out there? I did find some forums that talk about experiences with creams versus surgery, and oof, the mixed reviews are freaking me out! Like, surgery might sound extreme, but at this point, I'm feeling kinda desperate to know if there is a real option. Is there any surgery for skin whitening that anyone here would recommend? Or even experiences? Appreciate any input!
