PERFORMANCE
When the skin gets inflamed from acne, our skin releases melanin. This causes dark spots known as inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). The effect from from PIH can last longer than acne itself and is most prevalent in melanin-rich skin.
It is essential to treat acne skin with a different approach for those with darker skin tones because a simple breakout can result in scarring, dark marks, and keloids.
HEAL treats acne with the use of gentle ingredients. Gentle ingredients are a must when treating acne as harsher products can cause severe dryness and/or irritation which worsens dark spots. HEAL is designed to activate preventative measures, improve, and minimize scarring most commonly known as dark spots.
