I had a loss of pigment from cortisone shot on both sides of buttocks. how do i treat this issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cortisone can disolv: Cortisone can dissolve the melanin pigment. This is not a serious problem and often the pigment comes back. We usually see this when the injection is close to the surface rather than deeper
