Acne scars (post-acne hyperpigmentation) on the face gradually fade over time. To accelerate this process, topical products with skin-brightening and pigment-lightening properties—such as vitamin E ointment or niacinamide—may be used. For more severe or persistent acne scars, laser therapy or intense pulsed light (IPL) photorejuvenation may be considered. In daily life, strict sun protection is essential; additionally, avoid spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods, and limit intake of foods high in melanin-promoting compounds.
