Long-term use of skin-lightening creams like Skin Lite can cause skin damage and rebound darkening. Stop using the cream completely and avoid sun exposure by using sunscreen (SPF 30+). Keep your skin moisturized with gentle, fragrance-free creams. Consult a dermatologist for proper treatment, such as medications or therapies to repair and even out your skin.
