Hi,

As per your query, you have symptoms of dark marks in hands and knees as your skin sensitivity is high and leads to accumulation of UV rays of the sun and in turn, darkness and hyperpigmentation.

Need not to panic about it. I would suggest you start with medicated sunscreen i.e TAN CARE rich in SPF 30. Try to avoid sun exposure and if ever you have to go cover your face with the wet cloth. Take creams rich in Kojic acid and Azelaic acid as they are the most common natural bleaching agents. One of the safest and most-gentle bleaching agents is liquorice extract which is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Apply mashed potatoes on the face for 15 minutes daily as it will lighten your color. Drink a lot of water and multivitamin supplements.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
