MELASMA & HYPERPIGMENTATION
Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin (the pigment that gives skin its color) is produced in certain areas, leading to dark spots or patches.
​
Types of Pigmentation We Treat:
-
Melasma: Symmetrical brown or grayish patches, often on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. Triggered by hormones, sun exposure, pregnancy, or birth control.
-
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): Dark spots left behind after acne, eczema, or injury.
-
Sunspots / Age Spots: Caused by chronic sun exposure over time.
-
PIH in deeper skin tones: Requires special care to avoid worsening pigmentation.
