Hyper Pigmentation

Question

Hyper Pigmentation

Asked for Male, 30 Years

My skin on joints like (fingers, elbows, knees, inner thighs) is very dark comparing to overall skin colour. I've used many ointments prescribed by well know dermatologists but nothing works so far. Although its not a decease I'm lacking confidence due to this. I hope this is curable for good. Can you help, please? We can arrange an online consultation if required.
