Hi Grace,
If you are using the AHA (Glycolic Acid) Treatment, which is an exfoliating treatment, you may experience darkening of the skin. Exfoliation of the skin causes it to be more sensitive to sunlight, and the skin can darken itself to protect itself from the harmful UV Rays, kind of like what happens when you expose your skin to the sun and get a tan. I'd recommend using a simple, oil-free, non-comedogenic Sunscreen (at least spf 30) mixed in with the moisturizer to prevent any further darkening of the skin. Hope this helps!

That's why. What should I do to get rid of the dead skin? Because it's so obvious that my mom said to me "what happen to your chin, why it look so dark".

Try exfoilating.

That is not supposed to happen. Try mixing a sunscreen in your moisturizer if you are exposed to the sun.
How long did it take before the darkening disappeared?
