hi
the skin problem you have described is most probablt acanthosis nigricans...depiwhite and eslight are same(hydroquinone).....when this problem arises it means either youu have diabetes,polycystic ovarian syndrom (if u healthy fat)and myeloproleferative disease(least common).....these two are the most common ...so if u treat the underlying disease only then thack black thingy will go away
take care
