Hello Shammo

 

This is a great question for your doctor or dermatologist.

 

There are many ways to remove dark spots or decrease hyperpigmentation but only your doctor is going to be able to tell you the most effective way.

 

Here is information about melasma or hyperpigmentation from Dermal Network.

 

Some of the ways discussed to get rid of dark spots include laser treatment, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and skin lightening creams.

 

I would discuss these options with a dermatologist to get the best and most effective treatment for you.

 

Thank you for your question.
