How can i repair skin discoloration caused from hair removal products?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Can't repair: This is called "post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation". Hopefully the "natural force" would remove the pigmentation in a long run. But there is no quick and effective way of removing the pigmentation.

Bleaching agents : Hydroquninone or kojic acid may hep the hyperpigmented areas.
