The breakouts are gone, but your skin still remembers. Dark spots, redness, uneven tone - post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is acne's unwanted souvenir. The good news? With the right products, those marks fade faster than you'd think.
How do acne marks form?
When skin experiences inflammation, it overproduces melanin, leaving brown or reddish spots that can linger for months. Treatment rests on three pillars: accelerate cell renewal, inhibit melanin production, and protect from UV.
