Hi there.
This pigmentation does occur in some patients on isotretinoin.
Usually just a sunscreen use from dawn to dusk suffices and it reverses when treatment is finished and stopped.
However , it varies for different people.
Best to post a clear digital pic and Consult Online on the INSTANT ONLINE Consultation available on this App 🙏
Health Tips
Avoid ☀️ & use a 🧢☔ in addition to sunscreen application every 3-4 hrs from dawn to dusk.
