What Causes A Skin Rash To Turn Brownish Colour?
Hi, I just recently have a skin rash on the side of my face possibly 3-4 weeks ago and is still there. I'm currently treating it with aloe vera gel, from the plant itself. I have started to notice that the skin rash is turning reddish to a brownish color - is this part of the healing process? Or is it hyperpigmentation?

Hi,
You seem to be developing post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. I would recommend you to apply depigmenting cream on it along with sunscreen on the entire face during the day time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
