Hi Saba,

Sun causes most of the damage to our skin and its the basic cause of skin Ageing and the formation of Wrinkles and causes age spots and freckles, in addition to skin cancer and pigmenation disorders. So stay away from sun as much as you can. Do apply sunblock lotion when you go out in the sun. Shield your body from the sun as far as possible to prevent discolouration. Wear full sleeves if you are going to be in strong sunlight, so you do not feel too hot. If you would rather wear short sleeves, make sure you apply adequate sunscreen , not just on your face, but on your arms as well.

If you think that you have severe pigmentation then you must see a dermatologist personally. He would be able to prescribe appropriate treatment. Mild chemical pigment peels are also available wherein the outer discoloured layer of the skin is peeled off. But unless your skin tone is starkly uneven, or if you have discolouration or patches on your face, I do not see the need for going in for this. Homeopathy medication has also been known to treat pigmentation, but while there are no guarantees, this medication is safe, has no side effects, and is worth a shot.

-Drink at least ten glasses of water in a day. Drink two glasses of water in the morning when you wake up, before brushing your teeth.

-Try applying lime/lemon to the discoloured area. Do this everyday, and wash off after 15 minutes. You could also apply lime to the affected area at night once in a while, and wash off in the morning when you bathe.

-Bleaching the affected area once a month will lighten it too. Do not bleach when pregnant.

-Various creams and lotions that claim to reduce pigmenation are also available. You could try them to see if they work for you
