The effectiveness of any kind of treatment for pigmentation at home would largely depend upon how long you have had this problem. Keep in mind that if it is a recent phenomenon, then you will find it easier to get rid of it. But if it has been around for longer than a couple of years, then you will need to get a medical opinion. In any case, getting a medical opinion is always a good idea. This will tell you why you are suffering from this problem. The best way to attack any problem is to attack it by the roots - if you can kill the roots, the problem will die a natural death. You should start a basic routine of skin care to even out the discoloration on your face. On a daily basis, apply a mixture of half part lime juice and half part water to your pigmented area. This should help to lighten the darkness considerably. Do this at night because if you mistakenly expose your skin to the direct rays of the sun after applying this mix to it, you may end up only making it darker. The reason for this is that while lime juice is an excellent natural bleach, it is also a photosynthetic substance and can burn your skin at the slightest connection with sunlight.
You should make a routine of doing a self clean up on a weekly basis. First massage your face with a cream made for your skin type, then steam your face thoroughly. Use a scrub to clean out dead skin as well as bring out fresh and glowing skin. After this, you can apply a face pack and you will be done in less than 30 minutes. Choose a skin lightening face pack such as a citrus one. You can also make your own by mixing a pulp made with oranges, melons and papaya. This will also help to improve the texture of your skin and make it taut and smoother. These substances are all rich in collagen which is an excellent way to make skin look years younger. You can also make a paste of sandalwood powder, rose water and a little bit of turmeric powder and apply this to the dark part of your face. This will help to clear out your skin a lot. If you have for any reason developed pigmentation due to an infection, this method will get rid of it.
