Hi

Welcome to site!

I have noted all the details supplied.

For most such patients, the best results are obtained by:

3 Avoidance of sun-exposure or use of sunscreens

4 Diet rich in antioxidants

5 Kojic acid preparations locally

6 Physician assessment from the point of view of mainly diabetic concerns
