After I get rid of a pimple, I get these blotches that are lighter than my skin tone where the pimple used to be. The spots arn't puffy or anything but they are embarrasing and a bit unattractive Confused . Does anyone know what they are or have tips on how to quickly get rid of these spots? Thanks so much!

I know what you are talking about, because I have one on my cheek. I am not sure what happened, what I did differently to heal it, because this does not happen very often. What I did to get mine lighter and I am still working on it), but I keep exfoliating it with my facial brush. The only thing I can guess is with the pimple process of the red, inflamed ect and me applying things to get it to go away, I must of applied something that lightened my skin sort of messed with my pigmentation. I don't know. Do you get the light spots with every blemish that heals?

Hi Brooke, This is a big question for a lot of us -- they are so annoying! Here are two threads that have discussed this recently, and they're a helpful place to start: http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewtopic.php?tid=29558 http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewtopic.php?tid=29798

White spots are hypo-pigmentation and will occur sometimes after damage to the skin. There is really no way to treat them. Do yours ever turn back to skin color?

They don't always show up, but they usually show up after every pimple. I THINK they go away after a while, but I'm not really sure; I've never gotten so many that are so noticable. Thanks for your help so far!
