Hi I have vry dark and pigmented knee which are verry embarrassing . I applied brite cream n tried many home remedies but none worked. Plz suggest some medication

Dark and pigmented knees can be a cosmetic concern. Here are some suggestions: *Topical Treatments* 1. *Hydroquinone cream*: A common treatment for hyperpigmentation. However, use it under a dermatologist's guidance. 2. *Kojic acid cream*: Helps reduce melanin production and hyperpigmentation. 3. *Retinoid cream*: Derivatives of vitamin A that can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Home Remedies* 1. *Lemon juice and honey*: Mix equal parts lemon juice and honey, apply to knees, and rinse after 20 minutes. 2. *Cucumber and turmeric*: Grate cucumber, mix with turmeric powder, and apply to knees. 3. *Coconut oil and sugar*: Mix coconut oil and sugar, gently scrub knees, and rinse.
