Can acne cause dark spots?
Short answer: Yes.
Detailed answer
Acne can cause dark spots, also known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. When acne lesions heal, they can leave behind pigmented areas due to increased production of melanin. These dark spots can take weeks or even months to fade away and may require treatments such as topical creams, chemical peels, or laser therapy.
