Mask of pregnancy

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
I had a summer baby and I am a bonafide sun worshipper spare the judgement and preaching please so I definitely laid out alot before LO was born and I am in the sun a lot now too. Anyway I have some awful hyper pigmentation above my upper lip like its really tan right there and looks like I have a freakin mustache. Fml. Will it ever go away?? Is there anything I can do??

    I had mask of pregnancy on my hands and it disappeared within a few weeks of giving birth - if yours is still there a year later I would say to see a derm.

    I had this even before I got pregnant. I asked my dermatologist about it and was told that using RetinA would help which I already used for acne and that doing peels would help as well.

    I had this and went to a dermatologist---he gave me a skin lightening cream for my dark spots which were next to my nose on my cheeks.  I forgot the name of it, but it really helped!  I always wear hats now in the sun because those areas can get burned easier now and want to protect my face as much as possible.  I'd rather use bronzer than worry about more wrinkles later.
