Hyperpigmentation: I am not certain of you skin type and color, but more darkly pigmented individuals will tend to hyperpigment or darken when they scar from a cut or a boil or even acne. Sun exposure may worsen it the darkening even more significantly. Bleaching agents can be used to lighten the area once the inflammation has settled down.
