Pigment spots: why they form and how to eliminate them

On By Rgal Nv

Many women want to have smooth, blemish-free facial skin, but what to do when dark spots appear? Why does this happen? And is it hereditary? These questions worry many women who suddenly notice these spots on their face.

Pigmentation is a common cosmetic problem that manifests itself as brown spots of different sizes on the skin. It can appear even years after excessive sun exposure, giving the skin a dull and lifeless appearance. But don’t worry: advanced treatments available today can help eliminate these spots and maintain a smooth and fresh appearance.

The three main types of pigmentation:

  • Solar pigmentation: Caused by exposure to the sun, tanning beds and excessive radiation.
  • Hormonal pigmentation (also known as melasma): Triggered by hormonal changes such as pregnancy or use of birth control pills.
  • Inflammatory pigmentation: Occurs after skin injuries, such as acne.

Diagnosis and treatment of pigmentation

Effective treatment of pigmentation begins with an accurate diagnosis. Only after identifying the type of pigmentation can an effective treatment plan be developed. The treatment process typically includes:

  1. Deep cleansing of the skin.
  2. Gentle peeling to remove dead cells.
  3. Use of advanced technologies such as ultrasound, mesotherapy and phototherapy.
  4. Acupuncture to stimulate blood circulation and rejuvenate the skin.
  5. Application of a nourishing serum to complete the treatment.

One of the recommended treatments for removing pigmentation is IPL, which is suitable for lightening sun spots and age spots with minimal discomfort.

Tips for maintaining healthy skin

  1. Maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet and drinking at least 2 liters of water per day.
  2. Avoid excessive sun exposure and use a high SPF sunscreen.
  3. Combine personalized cosmetic care with daily home care products.
