Hey, any manipulation of skin by itself could result in hyperpigmentation be it tweezing the hair.
The first thing required is to treat PCOD, and to avoid any manipulation (eg tweezing).
There are various options available for both excess hair and pigmentation, which can be advised on case basis.
Next Steps
You can consult for further guidance and treatment options.
