Help a n***a fix hyperpigmentation

[dontmindme]

Would it be a stupid idea to get IV drips to fix hyperpigmentation?

What even causes hyperpigmentation, since I wear sunscreen and moisturize everyday

Is it an internal thing?

Could it be an underlying skin condition, like rosacea or kprf?

yes

@dontmindme I use 4% hydroquinone it evened out a lot of skin, but still some are dark from damage and have only lightened slightly, I am planning to get 10%

I've ordered some already (4%) , idm if it doesn't 100% fix everything, I wasn't expecting it to anyway

lmk how it works for you when you get the 10% brother. My skin's sensitive, I'm assuming it'd be more irritating

Combine it with tret btw, just so you know, hydroquinone has a higher chance of melasma in dark skins than it does with people with lighter skin, I'd cycle it 2 months at a time

Damn. Thanks bud, I had no idea about that.

Do you think I should also avoid using it everyday? I was thinking of using it 2-3x a week

Ye use it like every other day, use spf 50++ always if you are going to expose yourself to the sun, hydroquinone + tret makes your skin super UV sensitive, you will get worse skin if getting sun exposure with it

Hydroquinone 4% + Tret 0.025%, SPF always.
You can also use kojic acid on the body!
There are also supplements that help for whitening but not hyperpigmentation in general, so I am not sure lol

What would an IV drip do in this instance? Like what was the expectation? Would it be full of vitamins or something?

I heard it interferes with tyrosinase (the thing responsible for melanin synthesis) which could lighten up the skin a bit

Glutathione IV drips*

Should’ve made that clear
