Generally, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation can heal slowly and spontaneously.
If the hyperpigmentation is more severe, it can be improved by physical methods such as laser treatment. Laser removal of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation uses a selective photothermal effect, but there is a risk of aggravating post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is also important to take care of sun protection after the laser procedure to avoid aggravating the hyperpigmentation.
