I've had this all my life. I have scars and discoloration of the skin. My skin is very fair. 001 light and the discoloration is a few tones darker. Since i have a green undertone my discoloration is greenish fade. It looks like i got some dirt on me or i rubbed against something dirty. I also have it near my mouth from a rash i had there as a kid. foundation semi covers it but this doesnt really bother me as much as the back of my neck.


Its red.. red like a horrible sun burn. apparently i used steroids there and it ate my skin. when i went to the derm they said its not thinned out and the color will come back. they recommended "clobetasol propionate .05%" and well the color never came back. i am currently using "desoximetasone .25%" on my body. It works well. but as for my neck.. will the color ever come back? or at least not be red anymore?

i think my derm was a well not very good.


btw is there anything i can do about the discoloration for the rest of my body?

Here's a natural alternative, it might help i hope
It sounds like you have a very difficult issue on your hands. As many have eluded to already there seems to be an abundance of methods to tackle eczema with some more fruitful than others.

You may have heard of a few natural methods which are starting to become increasingly popular of late, one of which was tried by a family member. We were all really pleased to see very favourable results over a long term and so its something i thought i would mention in the hope that you may find it beneficial.

It took a long time to find a safe source to obtain a reliable information from but the best website i have come across to date is a review website: *link removed by admin* I really hope this is somewhat useful!

Best of luck!
