Post popping pimple i applied undiluted dettol for 20 mints. boroline antiseptic cream for another 10 mints without washing dettol. i have dark patch.

Best to see a doctor: It is difficult to say if the dark patch will be permanent or not. It is best to see a doctor and have them evaluate your skin. It is best not to use chemicals that are not meant for the skin on your skin, especially face area. Good luck.
