Taking Doxycycline, Femcinol Reduced Breakouts On Cheek And Left With Hyperpigmentation In That Area. How To Reduce?

Hi doctor,
I had breakouts on right cheek in a very small area, from 4 months the breakouts were only in that area and rest of ma face is very clear so i was put on antibiotics doxycycline and topical cream femcinol A every night, now my breakouts are under control but i have hyperpigmentation in that area so i tried tretin 0.025% cream but it worsened my pigmentation so stopped it immediately. i'm getting married in 2 months and i want it to clear up in a month or so. please help i'm so disturbed because of the pigmentation i have got sensitive skin and so most topical creams irritate. will chemical peels give good and quick results? if so which peel would be best? please help

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem but let me tell you that any scar mark does not go with the medicine neither the chemical agents are there which can cure this but for sure it will go away it self without any medicine but it will take some time, you can lighten it with the help of cosmetic creams or at the most you can try Hydroquinone cream this agent some time gives good result try it and forget it because as you go thinking about it more it will take time to go away have nice day.
