How do i get rid of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation? i had hammertoe surgery and my toe is really dark?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How long has it been since the surgery? Healing can continue for quite some time, even months later. You may want to see a dermatologist to determine the best way to treat the hyperpigmentation if your surgeon thinks the hyperpigmentation is not going to improve any further. Good luck!
