Hello Mam, I am 25 and my inner tighs and vaginal area are very dark in color. I have consulted doctor about the dark color of inner tighs and she suggested me to use SPARKEL cream (hydroquinone, tretinoin and mometasone furote cream). I am using it from past 1 week and sometimes when the skin peel off it burns. I use the same cream at night. Suggest me some cream that can be applied during the day time to avoid the pain caused by the cream. Can I use it on my vagina too?? Or Is there any other cream available which I can use on my vaginal area to improve the color? Apart from it I want to increase my breast size.

Hai Doctor, I have taken Salicylic peel 6 sections , for acne after that Dr prescribed Hyclean TF cream for dark spots , 3 times in a week. After 2 weeks i felt my skin is getting dark. Is it because of this cream?. After the peel my skin colour were improved.

Hi Archana, No the cream does not cause skin darkening. Your skin probably requires maintenance peels for continued benefit along with strict sun protection.
