Pigmentation FAQs
What causes pigmentation, melasma, and hyperpigmentation?
Pigmentation occurs when the skin produces excess melanin, often triggered by sun exposure, hormonal changes, genetics, inflammation, or certain medications. Melasma is a type of pigmentation usually linked to hormones, while hyperpigmentation can result from acne scars or skin trauma.
How can I tell if I have hyperpigmentation or melasma?
Hyperpigmentation appears as dark spots or patches, often after inflammation or sun exposure. Melasma typically shows as symmetrical, brown-grey patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. A Skin Expert can help identify the type for accurate treatment.
Can pigmentation be prevented?
Yes. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is essential, along with protective clothing and avoiding peak sun hours. Consistent skincare, including antioxidants like vitamin C, also helps prevent pigmentation from worsening.
Which ingredients are best for treating pigmentation?
Key ingredients include vitamin C, niacinamide, alpha arbutin, kojic acid, and gentle exfoliating acids. These help brighten dark spots, even skin tone, and reduce the appearance of pigmentation when used consistently.
Does diet affect pigmentation?
Yes. A diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and E, and polyphenols can support skin health and protect against free radical damage, which can worsen pigmentation. Staying hydrated also helps maintain healthy skin.
How long does it take to see results for pigmentation?
With a consistent skincare routine using the right ingredients, improvements can typically be seen in 6–12 weeks, though stubborn pigmentation may take longer. Patience and daily sun protection are key.
Can pigmentation get worse without treatment?
Yes. Pigmentation can darken or spread over time, especially with sun exposure or inflammation. Consistent skincare and sun protection are essential to prevent worsening.
