I heard lemon juice helps.

Good old fashioned Eucerin.  Not the stuff with alpha hydroxy acid.  Look for the tub.  It has the consistency of crisco.  Slather up baby.  Then it wouldn't hurt to hit the tanning bed once or twice a week.  It really does help

Avoid sunlight, use a very high SPF every day, even when it isnt sunny (because UV rays can come through clouds), try a "fade creame" which contains at least 2% hydroquinone, exfoliate your skin (use like a sugar or salt scrub) and moisturize.

suntanning, or using a tanning bed will help because heat kills the acne bacteria. you can also buy acne lights called clear light. The next best is benzoyl peroxide any cheap brand 10% in the morning  and retin a (will need a prescription) before bed. Try the drug method at least 3 months and it should help. You can't use the tanning method and retin a at the same time though, if you use retin A , you must not tan and wear a sunscreen when outside for a while in the sun. Also wash with an apricot scrub, that St. Ives one is the best.

If it bothers you, you should see another dermatologist. Tetracylin is really side-effect ridden drug, I have brown patches on MY TEETH from my mum taking it when she was pregnant with me. \n\nThere are lotions etc, available which can lighten the skin... but in the mean time, as it may be patches of melanin (what makes your skin tan) make sure you ALWAYS wear sunscreen, even on days when it's raining. Vit A (especially at Roaccutane levels) can leave the skin very sensitive to light.\n\nAs a very quick solution, probably it's best to get a really good cosmetic concealer. There's a sort which is used for birthmarks or burns - ask a cosmetologist.  That's not a long term solution though it may help you feel better in the meantime.\n\nYou don't have to live with this, and while you may not trust professionals, keep getting second opinions until you find something that works for you.\n\nGood luck!

Try a cream from AVON called Banishing cream. It lightens skin discolorations.

Don't clean it.\n\nTake 10 sickdays off and come in with a tan.

Like Alex said, it is unsafe. You could just use sunless tanners. I know they have a bad rep but they are much better these days. Cheaper & quicker. Just put it in your palm, put in an equal amount of your fav moisturizer, add a drop of water, rub hands together to mix and apply making sure you spread it well and keep rubbing until it is mostly absorbed. You can stop adding extra moisturizer to it once you have good base color. For the most even color, apply right after your shower. Towel dry & apply to slightly moist skin.

Use the lotions they have now with a small amount of self tanner in them. In about two weeks you'll have a really nice, even, natural looking cancer free tan that won't age you one bit. I use them and they work great. I don't do the lying out in the sun thing anymore. I'd rather be white as ghost and still look 25 when I'm 45 than worship the sun and look like a raisin by the time I'm 35.

in america, we love tanned people, so you can either get the rest of your body tan, or try to lighten those areas.  You can either go surgical or topical.  surgical would be Michael Jackson's way of lightening, and a really good topical cream is the line by Shiseido-its designed for asians in asia, who like to have fair skin, that should help without going surgical.  just stay out of the sun for a while too-i tan great, but fade if i get out of the sun for like a week.

none stop using tanning bed. You are increasing your risk of skin cancer. Use spray on tan places instead. Believe me skin cancer is no fun. Please take care of yourself now it will pay off later.

only way i know is to go to a dermatologist and have it removed by laser

try applying curd on your face and leave it to dry.. rinse it with water after 15 minutes.. this should keep ur skin glowing and take off the unwanted chemicals.. moreover, u need to drink plenty of water to avoid the oily excretions from ur skin.. avoid all the cosmetic creams since they only add to the problem.. let me know if this works..

You must soak your nails in an acetone based nail polish remover until the fake nails peel off. You could ruin your own nails if remove them any other way. Or go to your local nail salon.

i would suggest going to a tanning booth instead of just buying a bronzer (those liquids can be messy, and sometimes it's hard to get it on evenly). with the tanning booth, 2-3 sessions at like 6 minutes per session should do the trick. it's fast, easy, and really really relaxing!!

there is a new tanning spray that colors you skin. It works really good but, can't think of the name of it. It last for quite a while.
