After reading http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_365484.html I was just wondering whether it would be possible to create a pill that could make someone's skin paler. Theoretically would it be possible?

i wouldnt have thought it to be possible because its genes that decide what type of and ammount of melanin is released. but im not up to scratch with side effects of drugs.

I shouldnt think a pill as such, but i was reading somewhere that through a series of genetic manipulation it is possible

ACtually its called Vitiligo, my dad has a similar condition (except he is not black, just genetically tanned)

Know i didnt mean accidental or purposeful genetic manipulation, i meant funny bald men/women in white coats and a handful of jelly
