Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern characterised by darkened patches or uneven skin tone caused by excess melanin production. It can appear as sun spots, age spots, melasma, or post-inflammatory pigmentation following acne or skin trauma. Common triggers include UV exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, ageing, and certain medications. Hyperpigmentation can vary in severity and may leave the complexion looking uneven, dull, or discoloured. Many people seek treatment to restore a brighter, clearer, and more balanced complexion.
