Pigmentation

Hyperpigmentation occurs as a result of sun exposure and damage. When your skin is excessively exposed to the sun, your melanocytes, the cells responsible for pigment production, become hyperactive and produce an excess of melanin, leading to hyperpigmentation.

Skin changes associated with pigmentation can include freckles, age spots or sun spots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and melasma. Pigmentation can be categorised as epidermal (superficial), dermal (deep), or mixed, and it can be influenced by various factors such as hormones, genetics, ageing, sun damage, and skin trauma.

At JJ Cosmetic Clinic, we believe in customising a thorough approach to treating pigmentation. Our approach combines scientifically proven treatments with active prevention strategies. We understand that every skin is unique, which is why we tailor a treatment plan and homecare regimen specifically for you, ensuring the best possible results.
