Hydroquinone: That's called postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, probably due to irritation caused by the hair removal cream. Lightening creams containing hydroquinone are available otc and by prescription, but insurance does not cover them - and never use them at concentrations higher than 4% - higher concentrations sometimes make the darkening worse.

Doctor: "When I.....: When ever a doctor hears that something is causing trouble the doctor wonders why the patient is continuing to do the thing that is causing trouble. I would first recommend that you stop using the hair remover that you are using.
