Understanding Skin Pigmentation
Hyperpigmentation, a common skin concern, manifests as darker patches varying in size and colour, caused by excess melanin production. Melasma, often hormone-related, is more prevalent in women, while sun or age spots, also known as liver spots, develop from prolonged sun exposure. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation arises from skin injuries like acne or wounds.
Several factors contribute to hyperpigmentation, including hormonal changes, age, genetics and external triggers like sun exposure and skin injuries. Certain medications and medical conditions can also lead to hyperpigmentation. It’s important to consult a GP for any concerns, particularly for dark spots that change in size, colour, or exhibit other symptoms.
Our clinic offers specialised treatments like the CLINICCARE ‘Glow’ Brightening Facial and Glow Chemical Peel, effective for various hyperpigmentation types. The Dr. Platon Cold Plasma Shower and Micro-needling with CLINICCARE Glow Meso vial are innovative solutions targeting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The Cube Light LED Light Therapy and Lumixa, leveraging Fluorescent Light Energy Technology, are also effective for treating pigmentation issues.
A dedicated home care routine, including the CLINICCARE Glow range and Cebelia Reinforced Depigmenting & Eye Brightening, complements these treatments. Additionally, using SPF products is crucial to protect the skin from sun-induced hyperpigmentation.
