After chemotherapy, skin darkening can be improved by consuming more foods rich in vitamins, such as lemons, tomatoes, tangerines, and oranges. Additionally, it's important to protect the skin from sun exposure—remember to use a sun umbrella, apply sunscreen, and avoid direct sunlight when going outdoors to prevent further darkening of the skin.
