Use an exfoliant on the spots and then use a gradual toner on the entire leg. It will fade.
Your skin is a living organ. It sheds off old skin cells and new ones form over time so don't be scared. Just take good care of it.

well let me start by first of all telling you that skin of color scars much faster and is more noticeable than white skin when there's a problem. the fact that you have melanin makes you more prone to those dark spots. i am dark skinned and i have suffered from the same thing you are suffering from except mine is from acne. this white lady explained the whole reason behind dark spots on brown skin/skin of color. well first of all we tan faster but we don't burn so when we tan the sun makes the spots get darker. she told me not to wash my face with hot water and don't use that bleaching stuff they sell overcounter. i think you should use shea butter because i've heard it works wonders. Also you should try using sunscreen so that it will prevent the sun from getting to your skin so fast and making the spots darker. the last one is to go to fashion fair, they have this cream called Vantex it bleaches out spots but it's more safer but a little expensive. using the cream might speed up the process but it will take time and patience before it complete goes away. Good luck my sister!

Please where do you people stay that get these mosquito bites when you are in nigeria? I am high yellow and go home frequently and I honestly cannot even remember one time a mosquito has given me something to remind me of my stay. Although my skin went haywire (face) because of a harsh soap I used and my allergies to oil. Anyway, where do you get these mosquitoe bites so I know where to avoid. an old friend that stayed around lekki claimed that side was infested but I think it was those beach flies or something

Heygal, those spots will disappear with time and your lovely legs will be out foe all to see. No shakings as far as u stick to your original products. All these advice  . You can't combine them all, so listen to me baby girl leave them spots alone. You could be allergic or react to all these beauty products stated. I use clear essence for women of colour. If i get a spot, it doesn't stay for long. Bleach d spots? When u stop, u turn darker tha n your original colour. Abi bleachers i lie?

well, i actualli went to da doctor recently and even tho he onli prescribed a moisturisin cream (useless as these doctors are!) he actualli told me that what i was havin on ma legs was hyperpigmentation which resulted in small dark spots lukin like mosquito bites. curently ive started to use vantex SKIN TONE cream which doesnt have hydroquinone (the bleachin agent) and the spots look much lighter in colour so its workin. i was hopin to use the vantex bleachin cream later on to speed up the results so that nxt summer wont go to waste (HAHAHAH) , i dnt think bleachin for a good cause is a problem because its is the onli solution for dark discolourations and if u was to visit a dermatologist they will prescribe for u a cream wid some amount of hydroquinone. nonetheless, the choice is urs since not everyone is of the same skin type get bk at me aight

all these are just less effective, try gathering some really thirsty mosquitoes cage them by playing catch, neways when you get them try picking it up gently from it's cage and then place then on each spot, you'll notice the difference instantly.
