Hello, I’ve been getting electrolysis for my chin and neck for 4 months. I haven’t experienced any problems on my chin, but some issues have started to appear on my neck. When I look at it under different lights, I’ve noticed a few pitted areas on my neck. In daylight, however, these pits are replaced by just dark spots. I can’t decide what it is, so I wanted to ask about it here. Is it scarring or just hyperpigmentation?
It’s just hyperpigmentation and uneven skin texture which is a possibility with electrolysis. It’s not permanent, so you can continue treatments without any concerns.

1000% what Thermo has said. Often there are small indents from wound contraction but these generally resolve over time. The sme with resulting hyperpigmentation. Nothing to stress about here whatsoever.
update after 6 months
hyperpigmentation is still there. i realized that electrolysis started to gave me orange peel skin and i stopped sessions. i tried arbutin serum for a while but it didn’t really help. it looks so bad that i consider getting a neck tattoo.
