I notice that thiospost is used in the EU. I am wondering if it is FDA
approved here in the US. Sometimes the EU approves things without as much
safety testing. If it does work, it looks like you would need to continue
to use the cream over time, which might be very pricey. A very interesting
site, though, I am wondering if anyone has tried this? It might be
reasonable to ask the dermatologist about this substance.
Hi,
While browsing the web for information about BN, i landed on this site:
http://chernjie.blogspot.com/2005/12/beckers-nevus-melanosis.html
where a user was talking about a āpigmentation treatment which can overcome this problem significantly, reducing the size of dark spots and also one which has been shown to work in 80% of cases. It is called Thiospot and is available from this brilliant pigmentation treatment website.ā
Hereās the website for Thiospot:

Is there anyone who have tried something similar and who can give us feedback?
Hello,
Iām just wondering if you have covered up ur bn w/ a tattoo yet? I want to do that myself. But Iām also worried that the outcome might be worse then what it is now. Please keep me posted.
Thanks
Have any of you guys tried Permanent makeup? Itās another option. I havenāt looked into it though myself. Itās not permanent though. It only lasts three years I think, because the makeup fades in time.
micropigmentation (Permanent Make Up)
Intradermal Pigmentation is a revolutionary method of applying micro insertions of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. This state of the art technique is medically proven and specifically designed to be completely safe. Intradermal Pigmentation is used for a variety of permanent cosmetic enhancements such as eyebrows, eyeliner and lip liner.
Cosmetic procedure includes Vitaligo, stretch marks, scar camouflage, areola restoration and hairline enhancement.
What is permanent make-up made of?
Permanent make-up consists of fine particles of iron oxide based pigment compounds which are placed precisely within the middle skin layer to provide color. The most advanced pigments are used which are fully dermatologist approved. The pigments are individually mixed to provide customized results.
Is implantation of pigment safe?
Yes - The pigment used is made from iron oxide - a safe, non-reactive substance approved for use by dermatologists. The procedure does not harm the skin or damage existing hair.
How many treatments are required?
Typically 2 treatment sessions are required and these are placed one or more weeks apart. Truly professional artistic implantation takes time and several steps to achieve the final results. Pigments are mixed to closely match the natural skin tone or hair color. Darker color can always be increased during subsequent visits. The creation of a natural hair pattern such as in the eyebrows requires the expertise of an experienced pigment specialist.
What happens after treatment?
The treated area should be kept clean but not scrubbed. Excess pigment on the skin surface will be shed without disturbing the implanted pigment. The skin returns to normal the next day.
Is the procedure painful?
There is very mild discomfort during the treatment session, which can be easily prevented with the application of topical and/or local anesthesia. The procedure is usually done in the office setting often with the use of magnification to provide precise placement of the pigment.
Is permanent make-up harmful?
No, it is exceptionally safe when performed by a qualified pigment specialist. Strong colors are usually avoided except in special circumstances as they often go out of style quickly. Remember that this is an extended wear permanent procedure, which is designed to look natural. It is intended to enhance the lash lines, brows and lips without replacing the ability to use make-up.
Hi!
Iām a woman, 38 yrs old. I also have a BN but no hair.
The treatment I used is on the āwomen with BNā discussion. Just look for it guys.

The 20g is almost Ā„3,700 and the 45g is Ā„7,600.

Hi i am a 18 year old boy.
I have a beckerās nevus on my right underarm. I did so much research to treatment, but there arentāt any effective ones, yet. Does anyone know if there is still research going on, to find the pathogenesis of nevus becker? I think laser treatment will not be effective, but i donāt see any research on alternataives methods. Maybe if the pathogenesis is found, they can develop better treatment options.
If anyone has some information on this, please share.
Just wanted to share that there was a successful removal of BN via dermabrasion with sterilized sandpaper. See https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8405417/ This is the first time Iāve read about this treatment options. I attempted laser treatments years ago, but it didnāt seem to make much of a difference on my BN.
Hi, I have a huge patch from my right shoulder to middle of my neck. Even though I donāt want to be self conscious about it, i cant wear things that show it , especially during the summer. I was really interested in getting a tattoo cover up bit Iām afraid that it make me at more risk of developing skin cancer etc. The permanent make up options sounds promising , does anyone have experience? Are there anything topical that could potentially help?
also wow I didnāt expect to find a discussion forum and hearing everyoneās experience is really interesting !
