RE: Hyperpigmentation, scars

Hello Nat, what you have is called postinflamatory hyperpigmentation probably due to a prior skin infection/acneiform, and your skin reacts developing this pigmentation as a consequence. Don't scratch/rub the skin, avoid sun exposure, use a sunscreen SPF30+ and if possible a lightening cream with hydroquinone. If you're having flare-ups, seek a dermatologist for appropriate treatment.
