I used hydroquinone containing cream in 2013-14 to get rid of tan and got good results then I kept using it for almost a year and stopped using it. Since then my neck started getting darker and now it is too dark. I went to laser treatment center but they said they don’t wanna give treatment because my skin was damaged by hydroquinone.
