Scar hyperpigmentation

2023-02-23 18:03:34
Hi, I had an accident and got a scar on my face. Even though I took care of it really well, the healing left a hyperpigmented patch on my face. For that my doctor recommended to use skin light cream for the next two months. I read on Internet that it could cause side effects. Is is safe to use? Does it cause more pigmentation?

Could you please mention the name of the cream It seems it contain Hydroquinone A very good depigmenting agents, but must be used short terms under medical supervision. The effect you read happens at high concentration when applied prolonged (>4-5 months)
