You have not mentioned which cream you are using for hyper-pigmentation, so I can not guide you if you are in the right direction or not. But according to me before using any creams or lotions for hyper-pigmentation it would be wise to consult a specialist for the same. Besides you can try the following remedies for hyper-pigmentation -
- Rub a fresh lemon slice on the skin with hyper-pigmentation, lemon will act as a natural bleaching agent and help to lighten the dark patches caused by hyper-pigmentation.
- Mix hydrogen peroxide (20 volume strength) with 2 teaspoon of milk powder to make a thick paste. Add few drops of glycerin to this paste and apply it to the pigmented areas of the skin. Before washing it off with water let it remain for 20 minutes. This is a very good remedy for hyper-pigmentation as it helps to lighten the pigmented spots on the skin. After cleaning the skin with water if you feel that the skin has become dry you can use a moisturizer.
- Break open a vitamin E capsule and add a few drops of castor oil in it. Apply this vitamin and oil mixture on the pigmented skin. Castor oil along with vitamin E helps to decrease the pigmented patches on the skin.
- Apply juice extracted from fresh aloe vera leaves or apply aloe vera gel on the pigmented skin. Aloe vera will work wonders for hyper-pigmented skin and also help to improve your skin texture and complexion.
- Drink lots of water to keep the skin hydrated. Also include fresh fruit juice and fresh vegetable juices along with fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
- Use a sunscreen lotion with appropriate SPF or sun protecting factor (preferably more than 20) when you step out in sun because hyper-pigmentation can be sometimes due to harsh ultra violet rays of the sun.
