Can pigmentation due to autoimmune disease be successfully treated? (photo)

Doctor's Answer

Hi,

Most likely, you have post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation arising from your underlying medical condition.

It is most important that your underlying medical condition be well controlled to reduce the formation of more pigmentation.

Lightening creams and pigment laser may offer mild to modest lightening of existing pigmentation. Camouflage makeup will be useful in improving the skin appearance for special occasions.

Hope this helps!
