What causes pigmentation and how is it treated?

If you have noticed patches or spots appearing on your skin and wondered where on earth they came from, you are certainly not alone. Pigmentation is incredibly common, and understanding what causes it is the first step towards treating it well. Let us explain it gently.

Common causes of pigmentation

Pigmentation can be triggered by a range of things, including sun exposure over the years, hormonal changes, and inflammation in the skin, such as after a breakout. Often it is a combination, which is part of why it can feel so stubborn.

How pigmentation can be treated

Depending on the cause and type, pigmentation can be supported with a mix of professional skin treatments and the right skincare at home. For some, advanced treatments such as laser may play a role. The right combination is always tailored to you.

Why a tailored plan wins

Because pigmentation has so many causes, a generic approach rarely works well. After assessing your skin, our dermal clinicians will design a plan that suits your skin specifically, with daily sun protection as a gentle but essential foundation.

We would love to help you understand your pigmentation and find a path towards clearer, more even-looking skin.
