I've been using Dettol on my pimples and thankfully, they disappeared. But now Im left with a dark spot where they used to be. The Dettol burns have healed, but this spot is quite noticeable. Any advice on how I can get rid of the dark spot? It's really bothering me.

You have burnt you skin. Dettol is not the treatment for pimples. It causes irritant burns. This pigmetation if not treated may last forever.
