Dark spots/ Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is an overproduction of melanin and can manifest in the form of sunspots, freckles, melasma, and post-inflammatory acne scarring. Various factors such as sun exposure, hormonal shifts, certain medical conditions, genetics, photosensitive medications, or inflammation from acne or burns can cause hyperpigmentation to develop.
To prevent future hyperpigmentation, we also recommend utilizing skincare products that inhibit pigment formation, protect against free radicals, and gently exfoliate or resurface the skin such as tretinoin with hydroquinone, a medical grade Vitamin C and use of a physical sunscreen religiously.
