Pigmentation & Skin Dullness

Unwanted pigmentation problems, like brown spots, patchy skin or melasma, have many causes and can occur in all skin types. Pigmentation can occur anywhere from the face, body, décolletage and hands. It is a skin condition where ageing dark spots caused by sun exposure and UVA rays penetrate deep into your skin turning your skin into a darker shade of colour. Melanin is what gives our skin its colour. The amount of melanin in your skin determines if you have a light or dark complexion. Pigmented lesions are dark in colour because the melanin is concentrated in one area of the skin, usually as a result of overexposure to the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays.
