Skin Pigmentation or Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition where certain areas of the skin appear darker in appearance than the rest of your body and are caused by an excess in the production of melanin in your skin. Melanin is the pigment responsible for giving your skin its color. As we age, many people notice small areas of discoloration, uneven tone, and darkening of the skin which can be caused by a number of factors including sun damage, hormonal changes such as in pregnancy, skin type, skin trauma such as acne, and burns. Pigmentation can also often appear naturally and more noticeably as we age.

At The Skin Clinic, we offer a variety of treatments for hyperpigmentation to help you reduce discoloration and achieve an even skin tone. Our specialist team will go through the most clinically appropriate options for you during your consultation including a combination of both highly effective in-clinic treatments such as Micro-needling, Chemical Peels, and laser resurfacing treatments combined with at-home skincare such as retinol for the best results.
