Acne and hyperpigmentation
I have been suffering from acne for quite some time now. It is still active and whichever acne is getting healed, it's leaving it mark oj the skin that's further causing the skin to darken, probably hyperpigmentation. These marks are not completely flat as I can feel them to be a little raised. It has spread all over my face, shoulders and back too.
