Brown mark on my face

I'm a 17 y/o male with acne prone skin. When I was 13/14 a small brown mark appeared right between my eyebrows and it got bigger. This didn't bother me at first, but after a while I went to see a dermatologist just to see what it was, he said it was pigment or something and there was nothing he could do to get rid of it. I just just want to know if it IS possible to get rid of it ? or if not recommend something that will reduce the appearance of it. Thanks in advance :)

Thanks a lot Arti, I'll get another appointment with a dermatologist and find out for sure what I'm dealing with.

Hello and welcome!
It is important to examine the brown mark before confirming the cause. This mark could be post inflammatory, due to acne, exposure to Uv rays or any other causes. There may be options available to get rid of it but an external examination is necessary before giving any comments. Laser treatment may be helpful. Seek the opinion of a dermatologist. I do hope it helps.
Take care and regards!
