Inflammation Is the Root of Hyperpigmentation—Here’s What to Do
If you’re constantly battling dark marks, the real enemy might be inflammation. Inflammation is what turns breakouts, bug bites, or irritation into long-lasting hyperpigmentation—especially in melanin-rich skin.
When the skin is inflamed, it produces excess melanin in the affected area. This leads to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) that can last for months if left untreated.
