It is a discolouration of the skin that follows an inflammatory wound such as a rash, scrape, or pimple. Popping a pimple increases the chance of PIH as it is increasing the inflammation. As the skin starts to heal, the skin overproduces melanin, and this excess melanin darkens the skin.  Unlike acne scaring, PIH is a type of pigmentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuperfade Treatment Cream should be applied to the affected area only as it is specifically formulated for fighting unwanted pigmentation at the source. Results should begin to appear in just 6 weeks of regular and consistent use.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHydroquinone 20mg\/g, Salicylic Acid 15mg\/g, Padimate O 30mg\/g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWARNINGS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDo not:\u003cbr\u003e\n• Use on children\u003cbr\u003e\n• Use near the eyes\u003cbr\u003e\n• Exceed recommended dose.\\xa0 Excessive or prolonged use should be avoided because darkening of the skin can occur\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWhilst using this product:\u003cbr\u003e\n• Mild irritation may occur (mild stinging of treated skin; or - mild itching, dryness, redness, or other irritation).\\xa0 Stop use if it becomes severe.\u003cbr\u003e\n• Avoid exposure to the sun\u003cbr\u003e\n• Use SPF 30+ sunscreen on any exposed areas\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDo not use this product and see your doctor immediately if:\u003cbr\u003e\n• If a pigmented spot or mole has recently become darker, changed colour, become enlarged or itchy, or bleeds\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAsk a doctor if:\u003cbr\u003e\n• Fading is not evident in three months\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis product contains:\u003cbr\u003e\n• Chlorocresol 0.1% w\/w as a preservative\u003cbr\u003e\n• Sulphites\u003cbr\u003e\nAvoid contact with eyes.
