Hyper-pigmentation

[/cz_title][cz_title id=”cz_98643″ sk_overall=”color:#020202;text-align:justify;”]The colour of our skin is dependent on the level of Melanin pigment and the activity of the melanin producing cell, the melanocyte.

 

Hyper-Pigmentation issues are very common. In Caucasian/White skin this usually takes the form of sun spots/freckles/ sun damage as a result of sun exposure. In Skin of Colour e.g Indian/Hispanic/Afro-Carribean it can take the form of Melasma or patches of dark marks as a result of trauma to the skin e.g by frequent scratching or rubbing against shoes/clothing or having developed inflammation in the skin e.g after a bite or Eczema.

 

Dr Prasad specialises in this area and will provide comprehensive treatment to correct and treat this as well as maintain that skin afterwards to prevent relapse (it coming back).[/cz_title][/vc_column][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6″][cz_gallery layout=”cz_grid_carousel” hover=”cz_grid_1_no_hover” slidestoshow=”1″ slidestoshow_tablet=”1″ arrows_position=”no_arrows” dots_position=”dots_bc” dots_style=”dots_square” grid_disable_links=”true” infinite=”true” autoplay=”true” id=”cz_87150″ images=”1024″ custom_size=”full” class=”my-gallery” sk_con_mobile=”margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:25px;”][cz_gap height=”0px” height_tablet=”30px” height_mobile=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle” el_class=”read-more-section” css=”.vc_custom_1595704359656{margin-top: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column][cz_show_more_less height=”0px” more=”Read More About Hyper-pigmentation” less=”Close” id=”cz_28939″ sk_button=”font-size:18px;color:#444444;text-align:center;display:block;”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]The beauty of going to a dermatology doctor is that you will get a definitive diagnosis and ensure that highly active, potent ingredients are used to ensure effective, safe and medically researched treatments.

These treatments fall into two categories hydroquinone versus non hydroquinone. We will discuss all treatment options with you. How you choose each product depends on the severity of the pigmentation but also the need to understand why and how the pigmentation has come about.
The prescription products we use at Faciem are far more effective and stronger than any product you can obtain from the chemist or online which is why we obtain such effective results. Dr Prasad has over 15 years experience in treating hyper-pigmentation and has a particular interest in it.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Chemical Peels
Hyper-pigmentation requires medium to deep chemical peels. Superficial peels can brighten the skin but medium to deep chemical peels are necessary to target the melanin and pigment cells.
Lasers
In some cases we use lasers. When you have a few isolated sunspots the right laser can be transformative. However a scattered generalised pigmentation really requires melanin pigment reduction  and suppression of the pigment producing cells via highly active medical grade skin care then finished off with medium to deep chemical peels.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/cz_show_more_less][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1590262227819{margin-top: 70px !important;margin-bottom: 70px !important;padding-top: 35px !important;padding-bottom: 35px !important;}”][vc_column][cz_title id=”cz_62214″ sk_lines_mobile=”display:none;” sk_overall_tablet=”margin-bottom:20px;” sk_overall=”margin-bottom:30px;”]
