Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

Post-acne hyperpigmentation is a common sequelae of acne.

I usually treat my patients of Post-acne hyperpigmentation with either Azaleic acid gel 10% or 20% formulation, twice daily Or with Hydroquinone solution twice daily or with kojic acid 2% cream twice daily. All of them are effective skin lightening agents.

I also ask my patients to undergo a few glycolic peeling sessions, in my patients of post-acne hyperpigmentation.
