A member asked:

How to make skin more transparent?(so veins show more and skin has a more pink hue)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Be content: I would recommend that you try and be content with your skin pigmentation rather than try expensive treatments that may or may not work. A dermatologist could advise you on the possibility of lightening your skin.
