I got this pigmentation from 1.Restylane Skin Booster - the doctor was very aggressive, I was bruising and bleed a lot. Day after I noticed some dark pigment around treatment area. 2.Acne Scar Treatment - another doctor performed ablative laser for me for 2 sessions. each season he used CO2 combine with YAG. He was aggressive too. My concern is 1.Is mesotherapy injection like Restylane skin booster can cause hyper pigment? 2.According to the picture, Do you think it is just a PIH or melasma?
