HYPERPIGMENTATION
Your body contains a pigment called melanin, which determines the colour of your skin, hair and eyes. People with darker skin types tend to have more melanin in their skin cells than those with lighter skin. When skin cells are healthy, your skin will appear normal and even. However, when skin cells become damaged or unhealthy, extra melanin is produced to help protect your skin. Alternatively, the cells that produce pigment can be damaged, which prevents melanin production. As a result, parts of your skin may turn lighter (hypopigmentation) or darker (hyperpigmentation), both of which are recognisable skin conditions.
Laser Skin Pigmentation Removal is a quick, gentle and non-invasive treatment. This laser is specifically designed to be absorbed only by the cells containing excessive concentrations of pigment. It does not affect the surrounding tissues or remove the normal skin color.
Peel treatments cause the outer damaged layers of the skin to exfoliate and eventually peel away. This leads to the production of newer, healthier skin layers with reduced pigmentation..
Medical grade skin care products have specially formulated ingredients to create a more even skin tone and reduced pigmentation when used alongside other treatments.
