Hyperpigmentation, Melasma & Age Spot Treatment

What Is Hyperpigmentation?

Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin (skin pigment) forms darkened patches on the skin. These patches can vary in size, depth, and color—from light brown to deep gray or black.

Common causes include:

• Sun exposure
• Hormonal changes (pregnancy, birth control)
• Acne scarring
• Inflammation or injury
• Aging
• Genetics

Hyperpigmentation is harmless but often causes cosmetic concern and loss of confidence, making professional treatment highly effective.

What Is Melasma?

Melasma is a chronic form of hyperpigmentation that creates symmetrical brown or gray-brown patches, most often on the:

• Cheeks
• Forehead
• Upper lip
• Chin

It is commonly triggered by:

• Hormonal changes
• Pregnancy
• UV exposure
• Heat
• Genetics

Melasma requires medical-grade, long-term treatment strategies to prevent recurrence and protect skin integrity.

What Are Age Spots?

Age spots (solar lentigines) are flat, darkened areas of skin caused by years of sun exposure and aging. They most often appear on:

• Face
• Hands
• Chest
• Arms
• Shoulders

While completely harmless, age spots can add years to the skin’s appearance and are highly responsive to professional aesthetic treatments.
