Hemosiderin Staining: Hemosiderin staining is the deposition of this pigment in the skin after significant bruising. It doesn't always happen with bruising, but when it does it can last a long time like 1-2 years. In my experience, this fades with time. There are no creams to address this issue as far as i know. A condom is always a good idea and can cover it up!
