###**Reminder to avoid pits carefully**
-**Whitening needle (intravenous injection)**: Not approved for whitening in China (may contain tranexamic acid, glutathione, etc.), there is a risk of liver and kidney burden, allergies, etc., not recommended.
-**Quick whitening products**: Skin care products or Sanwu products that claim to be “7 days white” may contain lead mercury hormones, causing dependent dermatitis.

###**Psychological adjustment suggestions**
Skin color is the natural embodiment of health and vitality, and professional ability and temperament in the workplace deserve more attention. Medical aesthetics can help improve appearance, but self-acceptance is also an important source of self-confidence. It is recommended to combine medical beauty with daily skin care (such as gentle whitening essence + antioxidant + sunscreen) to gradually restore the ideal complexion.
The final plan recommends that you first consult a dermatologist, analyze the pigment distribution through VISIA testing, and then formulate a personalized plan. I hope you can become beautiful scientifically and calmly cope with the workplace!
