Hello, Thanks for the query. I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
First of all,Beauty is not about a fair skin or pretty face,It is all about having a pretty mind and soul. Coming to your question. Repeated use of kojic acid can cause darkened skin. Do not use kojic acid more than twice in a week. You can topical benzyl peroxide and clindamycin for acne. Kojic acid is not considered as a good option for acne. Apply moisturizing cream to your face twice a day,it will help to revert your skin tone. You can also take vitamin E tablet which increase the general health of the skin. Have healthy diet and wash your face in frequent intervals.
Hope I have answered your query. Wishing you good health.
Regards. Dr.Shinas Hussain
