I'm dark skinned and did the therapy once 6 months ago .. I’m afraid that I permanently harmed my skin and would be thankful for any advice to get rid of them

Answer: PIH after microneedling for stretch marks I don't feel that stretch marks are very easy to treat. It is particularly difficult to change the lighter pigment to dark. As you have shown, PIH is a risk in darker skin types.Microneedling (without RF) is way over rated. PIH can be improved with hydroquinone and retin a or retinol and/or chemical peels. Lasers, RF microneedling, Sculptra can all be tried but it will end up being very expensive and results will be mild. In dark skin types, the risk of PIH is greater than the risk of having a good outcome.
