Father of a 5 yr 4 m old girl4 years ago

Q.

My baby is 11 months old and her face and hands are much fairer than her legs, body and buttocks. The creases in the legs though are still fair and opening up because she has started to stand. When will the skin even out?

A. don't worry. color is totally genetic. it will be fine on its own. complexion totally depends upon parents complexion or melanin production in body. still do massage with coconut oil twice a day

A. it will gradually become normal I would recommend that everyday after giving a bath to the child and applying lotion on the entire body I would recommend you to also apply powder on all the skin folds of the child
