My skin got darker with hydroquinone and retin-A. The second derm I went to see gave a glycolic peel and helped. I recommend you to see a dermatogist who specializes in ethnic and cosmetic dermatology.

When I used the peel. My face was only dark during the week of healing. Once the dark skin peeled my natural color returned. You should return to the doc. I personally would not return to the doctor/nurse who originally applied the peel. Try to find a doc who specializes in post peel disasters. They will probably give you bleaching cream and a face wash that contains some kind of fruit acid. Best of luck to you!

I have dark skin and got this peel done without any adverse reactions! Maybe your doctor didn't use a VI Peel? You definitely need to use a bleaching cream!
