Can you tell me about the best way to get rid of dark spots, from popping shave bumps.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop popping them: A steroid cream might be applied to decrease inflammation. Exfoliation may be recommended to remove dead skin cells with retinoids. For secondary infections your physician may recommend oral or topical antibiotics.
