Hyperpigmentation

Clients frequently seek skincare consultation for pigmentary irregularities. Hyperpigmentation may relate to photoaging or may be a complication related to post-procedural inflammation. In both of these cases, the hyperpigmentation is related to free radical damage. Solar lentigines or “age spots” are accumulations of oxidized pigment associated with aging skin. Aesthetic treatments and topical products are both very helpful for hyperpigmentation.
