try regular exfoliation (about once of twice a week) on your knee area, using a body scrub or exfoliator. do this in the shower or bath, so as you can be sure it all washes off.
hope that helps

I read somewhere that slicing a lemon in half and rubbing the cut surface on your elbows was supposed to help remove dark ashiness on elbows. I wonder if that would work on knees?

Yes that is a very good suggestion, and I know women that have tried it and said it works, but sometime it take a few applications.

Yeah i agree using lemon will help to fade teh dark colour. Also try no to kneel on ure knees 2 much since that can cause more pigmentation in that area

To be honest, I don't know.
I think you'd want to be very careful about using in on sensitive skin, as knees and elbows typically have thicker skin and are not sensitive areas of the body.
