Hi Other Asian Brides!!

This is maybe TMI, and I'm not looking for any actual medical advice (disclaimer, there, I've said it), but I'm wondering if anyone else has dealt with this problem too? 

My wedding dress is strapless, and I'm thinking about wearing my hair up.  However, I have a dark pigmentation issue on my upper back that REALLY bothers me.  I at first thought I had a hairy back or something (gross!), but finally figured out that it was just slightly darker skin.  My normal skin coloring is a nice tan, but this part of my back looks ashy and dark (and kinda dry).  I looked it up on the interweb a while ago, and I guess it can be common for Asian women.  But I don't know what to do about it!!

I've considered going to a dermatologist... Or maybe a good aesthetician?  Are there any treatments to help tone down the discoloration? 

Thanks for any input...
