Is Vitilax Cream Recommended For Spots In Arm Due To Sunburn?
I have a few white spots on my arm resulting from old sunburn. They have faded some, but still noticeable. Would like to add some cream that would restore the pigment on these spots. I saw a cream called vitilax is supposed to do that. Should I try it?

welcome to HCM,
white spot after sunburn is post inflammatory hypopigmentation.
i didn't recommend vitilax cream for this issue.
apply placentrex gel twice daily preferably at day time with 2 minute message.
add immunomodulator tacrolimus 0.01% oint twice daily.
apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or more at every two hour in first half of the day to prevent further complications.
hope this is helpful.
thanks
