I just ordered from http://www.aloettecosmetics.com their introductory offer. It is a natural extract from the white daisy flower..and it costs $59.95 for a special introductory offer of two tubes and power vitamin C to use with it. I have the feeling it's going to work very well...I don't have what you do, but I do have uneven skin tone and freckling from sun damage. It's supposed to be very good for Melasma as well. I can't wait to start using it! It's at least cheaper than what your dr. was telling you and all natural and I believe in natural extracts...
