Anyone else have skin that’s drastically improved but still looks “bad” because of dark spots? [misc]

Beauty Tips For Body Care
This might seem like a weird question, but I wanted to see if anyone else is dealing with the same thing. I’m still recovering from a bad breakout and bouts of hormonal acne that’s been going on for the last couple months, but my skin isn’t totally clear yet. However, I’m on medication for it and I expect it to clear in the next month or two. But even though my skin has improved, it still looks like I have bad acne because of my dark spots (PIE/some kind of hyperpigmentation). Idk when they’ll fade but if I don’t wear my tinted sunscreen, they’re extremely noticeable. It’s so so annoying and disheartening, especially considering the best treatment for them is time and patience... anyone else dealing with the same thing?PS. I’m planning to start using niacinimide, alpha arbutin and vitamin C once my breakouts have totally stopped because I want to solely focus on dark spots and not have to worry about breaking out anymore. But I’m worried that the longer I wait to treat these spots the harder it’ll be to get rid of them. It’s just so frustrating ugh!
