Concerned about Pigmentation?

Explore Skin Medical’s effective treatments that can diminish pigmentation spots and enhance your overall skin tone and texture.

What causes Pigmentation?

Skin pigmentation, such as freckles, age spots, or blemishes, is typically caused by sun damage. These darker patches form when the body produces excess melanin in response to cell damage. Over time, pigmentation spots can become more noticeable, affecting overall complexion and skin tone. Fortunately, various treatments can effectively remove these spots using advanced technological methods.

Effective Non-Surgical Treatments for Pigmentation

At Skin Medical, we offer a range of effective treatments to address pigmentation concerns and promote healthier, more even-toned skin. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments are precise and effective in targeting specific spots on the skin while rejuvenating overall skin texture, often preferred over chemical peels.

Laser treatments are another advanced option for targeting pigmented lesions, using light energy to lighten blemishes and dark patches without harming surrounding skin.

Chemical peels exfoliate the outer skin layer to reduce pigmentation and promote new skin growth. Microneedling stimulates collagen production, aiding skin healing and reducing pigmentation over time.

Topical treatments containing ingredients like hydroquinone, retinoids, and vitamin C inhibit melanin production and support skin renewal.

Menopause can cause the skin to become drier, thinner, and more sensitive. The skins cell turnover slows down, this is due to the body producing less estrogen. The production of fibroblasts also slow down. Fibroblasts produce collagen and elastin, you may notice you skin loses its plumpness and firmness.
