Hydroquinone Prescribed to Light Spots... Can Make Pigmentation Worse

When you are prescribed a cream, drops or pills to alleviate a problem, you don't expect it to cause you more problems. Hydroquinone is often prescribed to help lighten dark spots, but it can be irritating, potentially worsening the pigmentation you are trying to lighten. Besides that, it can only be used for three to five months at most and the effects can plateau. 

Here are some options the experts at NaturalOrganicBody.com have found that provide some  alternatives if you want to get spot-free without prescription-strength products. This doesn't mean expensive chemical peel treatments... it's as easy as the over-the-counter concept.

These brighteners our NOB experts found can help to even out freckles and spots for more evenly toned skin.
