Does adapalene gel darkens skin my skin has got a little darker?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
not really, but it can cause some irritation which may redden your skin and subsequently cause a bit of hyperpigmentation when the redness goes away. See your dermatologist if this problems worsens.....and if you are treating your acne on your own.
