PIGMENTATION

Bright and flawlessly beautiful skin radiates youthfulness and freshness. Dark delimited spots

on the skin are merely an annoyance. They are signs of disturbed pigment distribution in the

epidermis. Skin pigmentation disorder occurs in all of us – in the face, on the neckline, the

back of the hands and the forearms. These include discoloured marks or brown spots, as well as pigmented patches of skin.

Key Things To Know About Pigmentation?

Your skin, hair and eyes get its colour from a pigment called melanin. When the cells

responsible for producing melanin are healthy, your skin will appear normal and even

however, when they become damaged or unhealthy, it affects melanin production. As a result, parts of your skin may turn:

• Lighter (hypo-pigmentation)

• Darker (hyper-pigmentation)

Sun spots, liver spots, freckles and other unwanted pigment are often associated with variety

of reasons including:

• Skin ageing

• Genetics

• Sun damage caused by over exposure to the sun or sun-beds

• Hormonal changes

• Medical conditions and trauma to the skin.

  
  

A common cause of hyperpigmentation is an excess production of melanin. Melanin is a

pigment that gives skin its colour. And it’s produced by skin cells called melanocytes. Several

different conditions or factors can alter the production of melanin in the body.A common cause of hyperpigmentation is an excess production of melanin.

Immediate darkening of the targeted area can be seen after the treatment, and for 7 to 10 days the area will look like a dark scab before it sheds and take the pigment with it. Melasma can not be treated with laser as it is a hormonal skin pigmentation and can cause real damage to the skin.
