Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation occurs when there is an overproduction of melanin, the pigment responsible for the color of our skin, leading to dark spots or patches.
​
This condition can be triggered by various factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, and skin injuries.
The Science Behind Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation arises due to an imbalance in melanin production and distribution within the skin. Excessive sun exposure stimulates melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing melanin, leading to the formation of dark spots or patches on the skin.
Additionally, hormonal fluctuations, such as those experienced during pregnancy or as a result of certain medications, can exacerbate hyperpigmentation.
Chemical Peels For Hyperpigmentation
Glycolic Acid
Glycolic acid peels exfoliate the skin, stimulate collagen production, and inhibit increased melanin production. They help to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmented areas.
Jessner Peel
Jessner peels combine resorcinol, salicylic acid, and lactic acid to deeply exfoliate the skin and lighten hyperpigmented areas. They promote cell turnover and reveal brighter, more even-toned skin.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid peels penetrate deep into the pores, exfoliating the skin and reducing inflammation. They are effective in treating acne-related hyperpigmentation and improving overall skin tone.
TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid)
TCA peels penetrate deeper into the skin than other peels, targeting moderate to severe hyperpigmentation. They stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of pigmented lesions.
