Nipple Color Coming Back? Help!

June 3, 2013
Asked By:Mich808 in New York, NY

I have used a cream with hydroquinone to lighten some scars on my breast. I used it all over them because it was easier that way. It worked great!!.. Except one problem. My nipples used to be pink/red and now they are a light brown color. I think it is because of the cream. Is there anyway to get the color I used to have back?
