If only a single serum or cream worked everyone (patients and dermatologists) would be so happy. Unfortunately only a vit c serum will not help. There are many reasons for darkening of skin e.g. tanning or Reihls Melanosis or LPP. So go to a dermatologist and get yourself diagnosed. Creams will be given accordingly.
