There can be several causes why your skin would turn dark or you may get pigmentation. Sun tan, overweight, pigmentation disorders like acanthosis nigricans or melasma, nutritional deficiency etc are some conditions. Unless someone examines you, we cannot know the cause. Unless we find out the cause it is difficult and pointless to treat. Please send photos with detailed history using online consult option for examination and proper treatment.,

Hi. Hmm its rather tough to say without having a look at you directly. For general use -
1. I could suggest you to use a good sunscreen of spf 30 - thats ideal for our weather in bangalore.
2. apply vitamin c based serums at bed time
Hope this helps. If any further doubts, feel free to reach out to us.
