Thank you for writing to us at Chat Doctor Psoriasis patches may resolve with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIN). I think that is what is concerning you at this stage. You may apply a moderately potent topical steroid e.g. fluticasone propionate cream, twice daily for a few days. This would gradually fade them away. An Oral vitamin C supplement once daily would also help with faster resolution of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Regards
