Pigmentation

Pigmentation refers to the color of our skin. Our skin color is determined by the number of melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) in our skin. Melanocytes produce melanin (pigment) and when this production is overactive or abnormal this can cause areas of hyper or hypopigmentation.

Hyperpigmentation is the result of excess melanin production and deposition, causing areas that are darker than the rest of the skin. Hypopigmentation is the loss of skin pigmentation or areas that are lighter than the surrounding skin.

Hyperpigmentation can occur due to sun exposure, certain medications, pregnancy, and health conditions including Addison’s disease. Treatment can include topical products.

Hyperpigmentation isn’t necessarily a condition but a term that describes skin that appears darker. It can:

occur in small patches
cover large areas
affect the entire body

While increased pigmentation usually isn’t harmful, it can be a symptom of another medical condition. Learn about types of hyperpigmentation, its causes, and how to treat it.

What are the symptoms and risk factors?

Darkened areas on the skin are the main symptoms of hyperpigmentation. Patches can vary in size and develop anywhere on the body.

The biggest risk factors for general hyperpigmentation are sun exposure and inflammation, as both situations can increase melanin production. The greater your exposure to the sun, the greater your risk of increased skin pigmentation.

Depending on the type of disorder, other risk factors for hyperpigmented patches may include:

oral contraceptive use or pregnancy, as seen with melasma
darker skin type, which is more prone to pigmentation changes
drugs that increase your sensitivity to the sunlight
trauma to the skin, such as a wound or superficial burn injury

What causes hyperpigmentation?

Hyperpigmentation is the result of an excess of melanin production. It has a variety of causes and establishing the cause of your pigment is the only way to effectively treat it. Common causes of hyperpigmentation include:

Aging
Trauma
UV radiation exposure
Medications & medical conditions
Hormones
Genetic predisposition

Types of hyperpigmentation

Freckles

Freckles are small spots of concentrated melanin and can appear in a variety of colours such as brown, tan, red, black or even yellow. Freckles are formed when our skin is exposed to UVB radiation from the sun, activating melanocytes within our skin and increasing melanin production.

Freckles can occur anywhere on the body but are commonly seen on the face, arms, neck, back and chest. In most cases, freckles are harmless and generally fade with reduced sun exposure.

Age spots

Age spots (or solar lentigo) are more distinct areas of pigmentation which are darker and defined. They are scattered in distribution compared to freckles and tend to arise years later in life – hence the name age spots. Age spots are caused by repeated sun exposure that leads to an over production of melanin and abnormal pigment retention.

Lentigines, also known as liver spots, typically appear on the back of the hands and on the face. They are flat light brown areas that don’t itch or scale.

Melasma

Melasma is a skin condition presenting as symmetric, dark, irregular shading over the cheeks, nose, upper lip, chin and forehead. Melasma is common in women, especially those who are pregnant or with a hormonal imbalance. It can affect all skin types but is more common in darker Fitzpatrick skin types. Melasma is caused when the melanocyte cells are stimulated by estrogen and progesterone which encourages the skin to produce excessive melanin.

Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a type of hyperpigment that occurs following inflammation or an injury to the skin. PIH is common after acne, trauma, and inflammatory conditions. Severe inflammation or trauma can disrupt the bottom layer of the epidermis causing the melanocytes to produce melanin that can leak down into and become trapped in the deeper layers of your skin. This results in pigmentation that is deeper and more resistant to treatment.

Depigmentation

Freckle, Age Spot, Malasma, Post-inflamation Hyperpigmentation

The program to treat your skin to reduced pigmentation, brightening and leave skin more even.
