Dark spot after Insect bite
Hello sir,
On 1st July 2024, at night some insect bite me but I don't know how and when. Then area below my left eye was strated to burn in the morning and it continues. Then I went to local medical store and took medicine and I ate medicine for 8 days. And my Insect bite was gone. But area when insect bite, is still left dark spot around lower area of my full left eye. It is clearly visible.
Today I went to a dermatologist. He prescribed me "Hexilak Acne + Scar Serum" and ANCIA-D3 tablet.
Is this medicine good for removing dark spot left after insect bite ?? Or should I use Biluma ?
I m feeling very nervous.
Please help me sir.

The insect bite reaction which you had is called Paederus dermatitis.
If treated early by dermatologist, a pigmentation could have been prevented.
Next Steps
For the pigmentation, usually the depigmenting creams such as biluma cream help. But since the under eye area is very thin and sensitive I’ll advice u to use a milder cream or use biluma alternative night and less than a pea size.
Health Tips
Need not use the other creams and tablet.
sunscreen is complusory as this cream makes the skin sensitive.
