This is an old thread, so I don't know if the members are here to answer, but I will try to help because I had gotten irritated by hydroquinone in my inner elbow after over exfoliation. What I did was lay off all acids...no exfoliating soaps, no kojic, lactic, glycolic acid, no hydroquinone. I simply babied that area with Vitamin E oil, Extra Virgin Olive oil and "sealed" with this gross smelling stuff called Bag Balm. I had over exfoliated that area with RA, Glytone and Likas...and when I put some hydroquinone on it made it redder and it scabbed up.Hi friend
What happend to your friend now, is the mark completely gone ? i applied hydroquinine (dapped) for 3 days over night... it turned red and i thought thats the way it works and continued.... now it scabbed and the area is dark black and very ugly..... 4 patches on my facecan you please help me with what she did and did the scar / colour go away ? my doctor gave me a cream called Derma-scar which has pinebark-extract and kajoic acid. im using SPF 40 sunscreen. your answer is very valuable
