Yes there are creams and remedies for dark spots

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXX

Dark spots left behind by pimples usually are self limiting. It usually fades in 1 to 2 months. If you get a new pimple by then again that will leave behind dark spots. So treatment to prevent further new pimples also is important. That way adaferin gel helps as it is a good maintenance gel.

For best results from the dark spots I suggest glycolic peels ( chemical peel) once in every 2 weeks till the patient gets good improvement. Along with chemical peels, I recommend then to use lightening gel like Kojiglo or Kojivit or Cosglo to be applied over the XXXXXXX before going to sleep and can be left over night. This lightening gel should be applied in the morning as well over the marks after washing the face. You may use Adaferin gel can be applied over the cheeks in the evening for 4 hours and washed off. In addition to the above I would start a gel form of unscreen like Ansolar gel cream to be applied in the mornings and for reapplication every 3-4 hours.

You can contact a dermatologist practicing cosmetology for getting chemical peels done. You will get best results with the topical agents as I described above.

Dark spots will be more severe if you squeeze or touch the pimples. So kindly avoid touching the dark spots.

Hope this helped. Let me know if you need clarifications.

Take care

Hello Welcome back,
Glycolic peel is a procedure done by dermatologist. Glycolic acid, a derivative of sugarcane juice is applied over the face with a brush and neutralised after few minutes. It helps in lightening and also has a role in reducing pimples.
Aloevera has lightening properties , however applying juice directly can burn.
Yes, the lightening gels I mentioned can be procured over the counter. They are established brands. Use any one of them and not all three.
Adapalene has keratolytic and anti inflammatory properties, so theoretically it should help in dark spots as well, but in my experience this action of Adapalene is not very prominent, however it is a good maintenance gel to prevent new pimples.
Ansolar gel cream is a sun screen and yes you will get it OTC.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care.

Yes, you can apply lightening gel without peel

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome back.

Even if you are not going for chemical peel, the lightening gel will still work.Chemical peel along with lightening gel will have an added benefit. It will subside in 2 weeks usually if the spots are not large if you regularly apply the gel. Sunlight will make the dark spots darker, so sunscreen is an important component in treatment.

Hope this helped.
Take care.
