Will Hyperpigmentation from Waxing Go Away?

The facts are, with superior product and expert technique, waxing won't cause hyperpigmentation at all. Products or packages on offer that include serums claiming to reduce hyperpigmentation after waxing are essentially degrading to the wax industry. Skin damage due to waxing is unacceptable.

How long does it take hyperpigmentation to fully fade?

People using treatments for hyperpigmentation acne should be aware that fading can take time. Some spots may fade without treatment, but this can take 6–12 months. Hyperpigmentation acne that is deep in the dermis of the skin can be more difficult to treat and possibly even permanent.
