Our targeted treatments are designed to address the root of your pigmentation concerns, offering personalised solutions to help restore a clearer, more radiant complexion.
Understanding Hyperpigmentation: Causes and Common Types
Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern characterised by darkened patches or spots on the skin, caused by an overproduction of melanin. It can appear in several forms, including sunspots, age spots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and freckles.
Several factors can contribute to the development of hyperpigmentation:
Sun Exposure: Ultraviolet (UV) rays stimulate melanin production, often resulting in sunspots and uneven skin tone.
Hormonal Changes: Shifts in hormone levels, such as during pregnancy or from certain medications, can lead to conditions like melasma.
Acne Scarring: Dark marks may remain on the skin after acne heals, a condition known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Skin Trauma or Injury: Burns, cuts, or inflammation can disrupt melanin production during the healing process, leading to localised pigmentation changes.
