How Do I Get Rid Of Dark Discolouration Spots On My Legs? by Nikky23: 10:22pm On Jul 01, 2009
I am somewhat lightskinned and all of a sudden, after trying an exfoliationg scrub on my legs, I have dark spots on both legs. I mean from my knees to my ankles with black discoloration. Pls people, how can i get rid of them or do I plan to see a dermatologist, it is not a pretty sight to behold and it happened so suddenly.
Re: How Do I Get Rid Of Dark Discolouration Spots On My Legs? by chiogo(f): 10:43pm On Jul 01, 2009
Yeah, go see a dermatologist and they'd prescribe one of those topical creams like Metronidazole. They can be bought in drug stores but you need a prescription. I use one of those for something else though but I think they work for all kinda spots.

This would be another difficult task because i have never had or seen a dermatologist talk less of even knowing the good ones at a good cheap cost. It is really frustrating like where the hell did they come from all of a sudden, spoiling my legs.

Well, it depends on where you stay. Are you in naija or. . . .?? I didn't actually see a dermatologist to get the cream I mentioned, my doctor just prescribed it for me.

How big are these spots? Most people get dark spots on the legs especially after shaving. I'm guessing the exfoliating scrub was for hair removal.

Exactly. I used Nair Hair remover. Exfoliator with skin renewal micro beads. i'm presently in america. It has spoilt my legs big time  and im somewhat light skinned.  It has no hydroquinine. The spots r not necessarily big but all over my legs now form my knees 2 my ankles with discoloration, im tempted 2 take a pic 2 show it but im confused. i rily want 2 get rid of them.

Hmm, that's weird. I use Nair too and there appears to be black spots in my pores but not that big of a deal. you probably used the hair remover the wrong way or the product was contaminated. I would know if it's the same as mine if you post a picture. either way, use one of those creams, you can find them at CVS and Walgreen's. Just inquire, you probably don't need a prescription.

Re: How Do I Get Rid Of Dark Discolouration Spots On My Legs? by chiogo(f): 12:51am On Jul 02, 2009
Yeah, or a doctor in general. And if you don't have one, just go to a store(you mentioned earlier about not relying on CVS/Walgreen's products) but it won't hurt to try. I buy most of my body products there.

A TREATMENT THAT TRULY HEALS STRETCH MARKS!!! 100% (Don’t waste your money and time with costly treatments!)

Did you know that applying topical products such as plant oils, cocoa butter or any skin-care product promising to prevent, reduce or eliminate stretch marks doesn’t work? Massaging skin with rich oils and creams may feel nice, but the claims of such products only add up to anticipation and frustration. Topical skin-care products can’t raise the indentations back to where the skin level used to be. Broken elastin fibers, far below the skin’s surface,is damaged beyond the reparative or preventative capability of any moisturizer or oil.

In contrast to expensive laser treatments, chemical peels, micro dermabrasion and surgical treatments that is only offered in dermatologist offices, Flawless skin Managers offer you this amazing 4 stage package combo, made up of strictly natural ingredients with no side effects, that is harmless, safe for those with allergy to chemical reactions, those that are not suitable for cosmic laser treatments. Instead it gives a long term beautiful skin without blemish, slows the ageing process, prevents wrinkles and fine lines, and helps keeps your skin supple and tight due to collagen production beneath your skin. You will typically see an improvement to your stretch marks within 2-3 weeks of using this package and get a huge saving form expensive treatments!

Best part, all is done in the comfort of your home! Package cost N45, 000. Call or add on whatsapp 08034917464.
