Brief Answer:
can be idiopathic or acanthosis nigricans

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Welcome again.

As per details, this type of pigmentation without any symptoms can be due to
Acanthosis nigricans or may be idopathic without any known obvious reason.

You may continue to apply triglow cream over buttocks daily and inner thigh on alternate day basis in night time only.

Dont use loofa while taking bath.

else you may go for pyruvic peel. It has quite good effect on hyperpigmentation.
You may discuss this with your treating doctor. I am sure he will agree with my opinion.
Stay healthy.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
