Understanding Black Spots

• Black spots from pimples are often due to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. These spots typically fade over time.

Skincare Routine Adjustments

• Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers. Apply sunscreen daily to prevent further darkening.

Topical Treatments

• Consider over-the-counter creams with niacinamide, vitamin C, or glycolic acid. Consult a dermatologist for prescription options like hydroquinone or retinoids.

Professional Treatments

• Options include chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy. Consult a dermatologist to determine the best treatment.

Lifestyle and Precautions

• Avoid picking at pimples. Maintain a healthy diet and stay hydrated.

When to See a Dermatologist

• If spots persist or worsen, seek professional advice for personalized treatment.
