Hyperpigmentation

2019-04-10 07:48:16
I used to use tweezing as a mode of hair removal for my legs. Over the years, perhaps due to my plucking on ingrown hair that way has led to hyperpigmentation and slight scarrings on those follicles. I was using jubare cream for 5 nights. Should I continue using that? Or use kojimet instead? Or is there any better way to deal with this problem?
