Pigmentation / Freckles

Age spots, freckles, lentigines, melasma, and birthmarks are commonly referred to as a pigmented lesion. Birthmarks are present at birth. Other pigmentation issues like freckles and melasma develop as we age and due to overexposure to the sun over the years. With the consistent and appropriate course of treatment, pigmentation can be lightened or removed with minimal downtime or discomfort.

Liver Spots/ Age Spots

Age spots are flat brown, gray, or black spots on the skin. They vary in size and usually appear on areas exposed to the sun, e.g. the face, neck, shoulders, and arms. Age spots are also called sunspots, liver spots and solar lentigines. They are often associated with sun exposure and can appear suddenly as you age.

Melasma

Melasma is a common pigmentation disorder affecting Asian skin. Melasma is sometimes referred to as the mask of pregnancy because it is sometimes triggered by an increase in hormones in pregnant women. Melasma causes patches of discolouration usually brown or gray patches to appear on the skin, primarily on the face. The most common areas for melasma to appear on the face include the bridge of the nose, forehead, and cheeks.

Freckles

Freckles are flat, light brown circular spots that typically appear on sun-exposed skin and usually a result of genetics. Freckles are more common on the face of poorly pigmented individuals and people with fair skin tone. Youngs kids may develop freckles too as early as 2 years old. Freckles are produced by exposure to ultraviolet light and may fade as we stay out of the sun. Common freckles themselves are quite harmless.

Acne Marks (Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation marks)

The red or brown marks that remain after blemishes have healed are caused by pigmentation and are known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation marks(PIH). PIH or acne marks are stubborn and hard to get rid of without proper treatment.
