Dermatologist,  's  Response
hi,
thank you for posting your query on HCM.
as per your history, you had trauma for which you applied opexa gel.
my advise would be:
1. opexa gel used for protecting and relieving dry/cracked skin, so applying opexa gel won't relive your hyperpigemntation.
2. for your post inflammatory hyperpigmentation, you may use retino a(0.5%) cream applied at night time for a maximum of half hour for 2-3 wks.
wash your face if you get irritation, and use sunscreen applied 20 minutes before stepping out in sun.
wishing you good health.
thank you.
