What is cause: It is necessary to determine cause of the dispigmentation in order to properly treat it. Many people try over the counter products and peels performed by salon and spa personnel. A visit to a specialist should help get you on the road to a more even complexion.

PIH: Post inflammatory hyper pigmentation is common in darker complexioned patients and is set off by anything that causes inflammation (sunburn, laser burn, chemical burn, dermabrassion). Light peels and hyper pigmentation fading creams should help. See a licensed aesthetician or dermatologist for recommendations. Ipl lasers are good for evening skin tone and are the least invasive.
