Hey Bruiser, I don't think there is relationship. They are three different processes. Bruising is from damaged blood vessels and goes through the normal evolution of colors as the healing occurs...purple, yellow/green, etc. If there is remaining pigment it is hemosiderin staining (iron product from broken red blood cells) and that fades with time. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is from melanin, usually occurs in darker skin types, and takes months to resolve. Melasma is melanin too and occurs from sun exposure and hormones. Does that help?
Hi islandpeach, I think our cellulite is similar and my results look like yours. I hate to be negative, but I don't think we can expect much improvement. How about a refund, right?
I hate to be the one critic, and I might be totally off, but I think the last picture is more exposed and with brighter light the dimples blend better. Just my two cents, for what it's worth. I hope I'm wrong and I hope it keeps improving.
