Skin bleaching/skin lightening success stories? If theres any :(?
you don't deserve to be criticized at all.. some people who want their skin bleached do it for a higher self esteem, which i think is the category you fall in.. and it's absolutely ok so don't feel guilty about it.. some may tell you "why do you want fair skin while others want a tan?" .. e.x.a.c.t.l.y... not everyone is the same..





a cosmetic doctor WILL treat you a skin lightening regimen if you wish it, but it won't be covered in medical insurance because it's classified as a 'want', not a 'need'.. that's the difference..





DON'T buy products with hydroquinone, mercury or steroids.. they will harm your skin now and after long term use.. safe ingredients are kojic acid, licorice, papain, vit.C..





where to find them?.. here's the link.. you'll find great testimonials there.. before, during and after using skin lightening products, always wear SPF 30 or higher sunscreen ok?.. good luck..
Reply:They were able to skin reatachment and transplant a new skin onto another person's body. Thats basically one of the other ways to change color skin. And also they were able to transplant eyes, like switching greens for blues.
Reply:Im not gonna critize but a clean, free of acne, brown skin is rly nice and what every1 wants and I want 1. I would trade you mine if u got that one.
Reply:No doctor in his right mind will perform a medical skin bleaching on someone just because they want to be lighter. An insurance company would NEVER pay for a cosmetic skin bleaching, not in a thousand years, if it were not medically necessary for some reason. It would be dangerous and really costly. If you are really concerned about your dark skin, apply sunscreen at least twice per day with an SPF of at least 30. This will prevent you from becoming darker and may help your skin lighten a bit. Also, your ethnicity is a factor...You can't just make yourself look white if you are african american or latina.





However, there are skin lightening products. Use a lotion containing Hydroquinone - it is the main skin lightening product used by millions of people. Many designer skincare lines such as Shiseido and Dior carry creams with hydroquinone. Just realize that they will be costly and the effects will not be dramatic. These kinds of creams are mostly marketed to people with hyperpigmentation or uneven dark patches caused by sun exposure or birth control medication.
Reply:Obagi Nu-Derm Clear is the major bleaching and correcting preparation in the Nu-Derm Skin Health Restoration program. It contains 4% hydroquinone (prescription strength) as the active ingredient in an activating base to increase its effectiveness.
