Microneedling is a popular treatment for improving skin texture and stimulating collagen production, but it can cause temporary discoloration and darkening of the skin in some individuals. This discoloration is typically caused by skin inflammation and can lead to hyperpigmentation. The degree of discoloration and hyperpigmentation after microneedling can vary depending on the aggressiveness of the treatment and the individual’s skin sensitivity. Aggressive treatments may cause redness, inflammation, and swelling, which can increase the risk of hyperpigmentation. Darker skin types are more susceptible to hyperpigmentation after microneedling, as they naturally contain more melanin, which can react to the inflammation caused by the treatment. To minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation after microneedling, it is important to avoid excessive sun exposure and to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.
