See a dermatologist: A dermatologist will be able to prescribe some topical medications to heal the acne pimples, prevent new ones from forming, and help lighten the dark spots that are left after the pimples heal. This phenomenon, called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, is very common in people with darker skin.
