I scrub and scrub when I shower, but it is still dark. I am hispanic so I don't think you can tell but I don't like the way it looks! Are there any creams or home remedies?

Home remedy, place your elbows into lemons cut in half for 30 minutes. Wash and then moisturize. Repeat this every night for 2 weeks, then do it 3 nights per week for a month.

Best bet for you to do is use lemons.....lemons are very acidic though and can burn so it is cool to use your own recipes.....Research them online....but to help you out with a few.....Since I make some home remedies of my own for friends....I have a hispanic friend...that I recommended using cocoa butter (you can search to find natural coco butter or buy the stick and melt...not completely though..but to make it softer) add as much lemon juice as you want and apply to areas at night...don't walk around with this on though...apply at night if you plan to shower in morning and vice versa...before going out in the sun use sunscreen until you lighten the areas you want....the same can be made with brown sugar and lemon...for the shower....email me for more.

check with a dermatologists (skin -Doctor) for the best creams. Some times we have to live with it.. I think ESOTERICA creams will fade in some cases.. it did not work for me though, but dont be so hard on yourself, we all have something we don't like, but I know you are beautiful inside... which always makes us pretty on the outside.

Go to a beauty supply store and get some Sloughing lotion. When used repetitively it removes layers of dead skin. Or you could have it micro abrasive off which lasers off layers of skin. Check out a reputable surgeon in your area for this procedure.

surgery but you will have a lsight line scar and it may callous slightly.
My advise is to relax. Everyone has this.

There are bleaching creams that you can try. I don't know if they will work.
