) but I'm pretty certain that it's helping. From what research I've gathered on this, it does eventually heal as the skin is constantly renewing itself, but it just takes a fair bit longer than your typical, superficial PIH. I've heard that Fraxel lasers and IPL treatments help (Though I'd advise against that because there are risks). You may want to trial hydroquinone/lemon juice/AHA/Kojic acid or Retin-A for a while and see if any of those make any significant improvement. If not, you may indeed have dermal hyper-pigmentation, in which case, you may have to speak to a dermatologist about possible treatments. A little personal research never hurts as well, reviews on specific treatments, blogs, forums and such from fellow sufferers.. Good Luck, I hope you find an answer.

Well if it is, I couldn't really give you a conclusive answer because I'm still suffering with PIH myself. I did recently purchase some 100% shea butter though and it appears to be fading them (or it may just be my imagination ) but I'm pretty certain that it's helping.
