I love to wear shorts but as I am a sports person I ended up with very dark knees, please suggest me few treatments I can go with like some peels or treatments, I have tried all natural remedies but none worked

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I like cosmelan peels and aerolase laser with skin brightening.  Please see an expert for a consultation and post photos.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.  The best treatment for hyperpigmentation is going to be a picosecond laser like the Cutera Enlighten, Syneron Picoway, or Cynosure PicoSure.  By delivering such fast pulses you will actually cause a mechanical disruption of the pigment cells rather than a thermal destruction making it safe in all skin types and highly effective.  Regards, Dr. Matt Elias
