Who should I see for pigmentation after using whitening cream?

Doctor's Answer

This must be very worrying for you. I completely agree with our 2 doctors.

Here’s what I suggest.

Please stop all lightening creams and see a dermatologist immediately.

What you have sounds very much like PIH (Post inflammatory hyper pigmentation), which is a skin reaction to an offending agent. Avoid sun exposure strictly.

Hope this helps!
