Can anyone help me? What do I do to match my lower body (starting from my stomach .) to my upper body… it’s too dark and looks like a different colour and it’s very noticeable .. my back is more dark than my stomach it’s almost black . I don’t know why I have this problem..this is how it looks in dim light

Do you know what caused your stomach to darken? Do you lighten the rest of your body but the stomach has remained dark? Do you not lighten at all and your stomach & back are just naturally darker?

Thanks for replying.. no I didn’t lighten the rest of my body . Stomach is naturally so dark and in fact my full lower body is darker than my upper body .. but it’s too visible on my stomach and back. I tried using kojie san it made it worse. I used a bleaching cream too which had hydrogen peroxide and it didn’t make a difference maybe a shade lighter for some days and back to the orignal shade .. now I don’t know what to do . Or if anyone has been successful in removing such discolouration

Don't ever use hydrogen peroxide for lightening. It creates free radicals and damages skin more. Start using lotion like amlactin , do weekly peels. Then jump on lightening using niacinamide, alpha arbutin or hydroquinone. I've noticed it's easier to lighten skin once it has been thoroughly exfoliated. GL on your journey.

Exactly what I was going to suggest, use amlactin or lactic acid mix on the dark areas and layer it for few weeks then start lightening. You can also use body scrubs once a week, you should definitely see results.
