Wai 05-09-2003 02:00 PM	please NEVER use a whitening product eventually they only make it look worse there have been lots and lots of nasty effects caused by these products they are really dangerous!!!
Cheryl2002 05-10-2003 12:22 AM	Sorry Wai, would you mind to elaborate more on this? Thank you!
sammyboy 05-10-2003 04:10 AM	yeah , wai can u teach me what to do ? it is because i feel quite awkward when there is alot of brown spot in the face. do u know what i means the brown spot ? it just a spot with colour not same with the other skin. sometimes when look at the mirror , i got the very disapointed feeling and very demoralised.

Unfortunately there is no real solution for making these spots fade faster. There are products that claim to lighten them up, but as Wai said, they are dangerous. So please, you must be patient. Not to make you feel any worse, but these spots may not fade completely for up to 6-12 months. If you want more information on these spots, look it up on the net, there is a wealth of information regarding these spots. They are called Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation or Post-Inflammatory Euphoria.

I mean he used to be a black man...I know he says he has a skin pigmentation disease called vitiligo. I want to know if that is true...any idea anyone? I have never met or heard of anyone else that had this disease so I'm interested. And I am a huge fan of MJ.
Wai 05-17-2003 10:23 AM	he used whitening products and it has caused him quite a few skin problems its hard to tell what was first... thank you Jay!
AussieShep 06-16-2003 12:47 PM	HELLO, Does anyone recommend any brands of a lightening cream/gel or other product? What works for blemishes, scars, or brown spots on the face? I do not want to have these on my face for the rest of my life!
