Question: I have had back acne for a large portion of my life. However after it finally got most of it to clear up I have had hyper pigmentation. Recently I have tried had 5 TCA peels done by a Aesthetician and tried the following creams in order to remove this hyper pigmentation:
Finacea:
Slightly helped me remove very mild acne.

Hydroquinone:
Didn't do much to hyper pigmentation maybe a very small unnoticeable change.However,this caused a break out resulting in acne that went away. Once the acne disappeared more hyperpigmentation was present making the situation worse than it was before.

Tri-Luma:
Same result as the hydroquinone.

TCA Peels:
1.First TCA peel worked very well, removed about 20-30% of pigmentation and caused skin shedding.

2. Second peel cause a break out in a certain region of my back and resulted in more pigmentation, negative results. Shedding occurred.

3. Third peel had same result as the second peel in the same region. (It should also be noted that the person doing the treatment focused more of the chemicals on that spot that recently had a breakout from the second peel). Shedding occurred.

4. Fourth peel I asked the person doing the peel to distribute the peel out all over the back this time. Very minor flakking and small change, 5-10% improvement.

5. The fifth time the peel was done the same way as the third time. Worse results yet. Large Break out after 12 days, no flaking or shedding. Results are shown a profile picture.

As you can see my skin tends to hyper pigment very easily and react very sensitively to certain treatments.

It should also be noted that I followed the directions during each peel and never used any cream 5 days before peels and 10 days after.

At this point I wish I never tried to treat my skin and just did nothing the previous year and waited for it to go away. However now it is so bad that if I were to wait I'm not sure if any of these scars are removable without now. What treatments are there left for the skin on my back?

Thank you for your response.

I see that you recommended oral isotretinoin capsules, however I see that this treatment has many side effects and also require monthly observations along with other restrictions, and I also feel that it is likely not worth the treatment in my case.

I should also mention I sometimes go an entire month or two without acne on my back, the problem with breakouts occur whenever I try to treat my back in order to get rid of hyper pigmentation that has been on my back for a long time.

These breakouts often result in further hyper pigmentation which I am trying to eliminate, therefore, further increasing the problem I am trying to get rid of.

Normally I would think to leave it alone and allow the hyper pigmentation to fade. However, it seems that it would likely take years to go away if I didn't treat it.

Acne is usually not an issue on my back unless I try to treat my hyper pigmentation. It is only that particular region that keeps breaking out from the different types of treatments I receive. My face is usually clear 95% of the time.

I was mainly wondering if there were any treatments that could reduce hyper pigmentation without causing a risk of further breakouts on my particular skin type.

Thank you a suggestion with another medicine. I was also wondering once the breakout has subsided, (usually take about 2 months after the peel) and I am left with a even higher amount of hyper pigmentation. How can I go about removing all the damage that has been done? Most of the treatments I have gone through have ended in failure or made the problem worse than it was before. I was wondering if there is a safer route that can give me at least some results.
Also to further note, I was also looking to go into some organic methods of back treatment because many medications and procedures seem to make my sensitive skin worse and I am essential losing time and money for adverse results. Would organic treatments be safer and be worth giving a shot?
