How To Treat My Forehead Is A Degree Or Two Darker Than The Rest Of My Face?

Hi , I m 17 years old. my forehead is a degree or two darker than the rest of my face. I read that lemon juice is good and started applying it for about 3-4 weeks. I also started using a sunblock with a spf of 50, but there was no improvement. Infact my skin started looking slightly burnt up. now i ve stopped and its better but what do i do about the dark forehead.

Hi, the dark patch on the forehead can be treated with microdermabration, a treatment done by qualified dermatologist. Or a lightening laser can be used. Do not use lime juice directly as it has an acid content which results in burns.
