Routine Overview
Kbeauty Skincare Routine for Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)- Oily Skin
This routine is built for oily, breakout-prone skin dealing with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It combines gentle low-pH cleansing, controlled AHA/BHA exfoliation, a concentrated TXA + niacinamide + arbutin serum, lightweight calming moisturizer, and daily high-protection sunscreen to reduce new congestion while supporting gradual fading of existing marks.
What results to expect (realistic):
- 7-14 days: smoother-feeling texture and more balanced-looking skin.
- 3-6 weeks: newer post-acne marks can begin fading and overall tone may look more even.
- 8-12 weeks: stubborn PIH may soften gradually when sunscreen and treatment are used consistently.

AM Routine
How to Use- (Steps 1 to 5)

- Moisturizer: Apply Dr.G Red Blemish Clear Soothing Cream EX lightly.
- Sunscreen: Apply CellFusionC Advanced Clear Sunscreen generously and reapply when outdoors.

- Serum: Apply Medicube TXA Niacinamide Serum after the toner has absorbed.
