I have hyperpigmentation on my face that is not acne related. i have heard castor oil works to diminish spots. is castor oil really effective?

See a dermatologist: It is difficult to make a proper diagnosis since I am not there to see the condition. I recommend seeing a dermatologist so that they can make a proper diagnosis and give you something to get rid of the condition or relieve symptoms.
