Hyperpigmentation acne occurs when a dark spot appears in place of a pimple that has disappeared. People with darker skin tones are more at risk of developing hyperpigmentation scars. Dark spots appear when the skin cells produce too much melanin. Hyperpigmentation acne may fade over time, but if the original spots were deep, it may be permanent. Although some topical and surgical therapies can speed up the fading process. Consult a Dermatologist for the same.
