A. It can lead to dark circles but not dark skin so you can clean the areas with cotton dipped in milk to clean the skin you will see change in few days

A. Genetics determine the amount of melanin in your baby's skin. Melanin is the pigmentation that colours skin. The more melanin your baby's skin has, the darker his complexion will be. Melanin protects skin from the harmful rays of the sun, the rays that cause sunburns and skin cancer.
