Is there any way to help fade away acne dark spots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely!: It is important to apply a broad spectrum sunblock daily and to wear a wide-brimmed hat. The second step is to apply a fade cream. You may buy over-the-counter fade creams (hydroquinone 2%). However, your dermatologist is able to prescribe you a stronger hydroquinone. Your dr. May also suggest serial superficial chemical peels depending on your skin type.
