Acne: Inflammation and irritation caused by acne breakouts can lead to pigmented scars, particularly in individuals with darker skin tones.
Injuries: Any form of skin injury or trauma, such as cuts, burns, or wounds, triggers the skin’s natural healing process, which can result in pigmented scars.
Dermatitis: Skin conditions like eczema or allergic contact dermatitis can cause inflammation and subsequent pigmented scarring in affected areas.
Insect Bites: Inflammatory responses from insect bites can cause pigmented scars on the skin.
Skin Infections: Certain skin infections, including bacterial or fungal infections, may cause inflammation and pigmented scarring after the infection resolves.
Skin Treatments or Procedures: Improperly performed or inadequately protected aggressive skincare treatments or procedures, such as chemical peels, laser resurfacing, or dermabrasion, can result in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
