I'm really worried because I've been using indigo powder to color my hair, and it's left me with black spots on my face from my cheeks to my ears. At first, it was red and burning, and then it turned black. I saw a doctor who gave me Biluma and Physiogel to apply, but the spots still haven't gone away. What else can I do to get rid of these spots? I'm feeling kinda stuck and would really appreciate some advice.

I'm curious about using Lumivoid skin lightening cream for pimple marks. Is it safe to use? And how long does it usually take to see results on those marks? Can you let me know more about it?

Lumivoid skin lightening cream contains hydroquinone which is commonly used to lighten dark areas on the skin such as age spots, melasma, and pimple marks. It is generally safe to use on pimple marks, but it is important to use it as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects. The time it takes for Lumivoid cream to work on pimple marks can vary from person to person. In general, you may start to see some improvement in the appearance of pimple marks within a few weeks of regular use. However, it may take several weeks to months to see significant results. It is important to be patient and consistent with the application of the cream for best results.
