What bleaching cream(s) do you recommend?

QUESTION: What bleaching cream (s) do you recommend?

D'LYNN'S ANSWER:  There are several quality bleaching creams that are available. One of my favorites is the Caliderma Brightening Cream which contains Kojic acid, hydroxy acids and Vitamin C, which are shown to inhibit melanin production. Cosmelan 2 cream, which contains Kojic acid, works great as well. I have had great results from both of these, however you may have a bit of redness, peeling and some slight itching especially the first couple of weeks you start using these products.

Another option is to make an appointment to see your dermatologist. They would be able to prescribe a stronger bleaching or lightening cream such as Hydroquinone or Tri luma.
