A member asked:

Should i see a doctor if i have darkening of the skin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes.: It will not resolve spontaneously and the longer the darkening is present the more difficult itvwill be to improve the skin.Prescription cream, chemical peel, and microdermabrasion combined with laser are treatment options.
