If so how long have you been on full dose ?
The pigmentation of your skin the redness will almost certainly go and revert to normal skin colour. If however you are left with white spots where the pigment has gone from your skin..I think that the colour should return but may take time and you may need a bit of makeup if it bothers you. Your skin will be flat just lacking pigment.
I still have a couple of white spots that show up more in the summer when I get my tan they are on my lower legs
I started with one tablet on the 5th of august 2015, then 2 the 12th of aug and 3 on the 22nd of sep. I think i started on 4 from the 23rd nov and im currently on 4 a day at 120mg. I think its still red as it may be active still. Ive a few faint plagues slightly flakey left. I have white spots on my arms because i got a lot of sun during the summer. It doesnt bother me once its not flakey and red
That's good that you have so much clearance on 4 a day..... But if the ankles don't start to subside it may be worth asking to increase to 5 a day just to get total clearance .... When you have that after a couple of months you can start to reduce to a maintenance dose, for me if I go below 4 tablets I get the plaques start to reappear
The White spots don't worry me either as it's not like psoriasis and nobody shies away from a few white spots
I'm sure your ankles will clear, there is usually somewhere stubborn to remind you that you have the disease
