Common questions about face serums for normal skin and uneven tone
It is reasonable to try one or two over-the-counter serums for mild uneven tone, as long as you are also using daily sunscreen and giving each product enough time to work. If you have used a couple of different formulas correctly for several months with almost no improvement, or if your pigmentation is very dark, patchy, or keeps spreading, it is better to see a dermatologist than to keep buying new serums. You should also seek professional advice if every new serum causes burning or rashes, if you suspect melasma, or if any spot looks very different from your other marks. A dermatologist can identify what kind of pigmentation you have and suggest a safer, more targeted plan than trial-and-error at home.
