Get Ready For Laser Season: The Best Hyperpigmentation Treatments After Summer
At Define Clinic in London, we offer leading-edge hyperpigmentation treatments to help you achieve clear, even-toned skin as we enter Laser Season this autumn. As summer draws to a close, many of us may notice changes in our skin. Prolonged sun exposure often leads to hyperpigmentation, which appears as dark spots, patches, or potentially an overall uneven skin tone. This is a common issue that many people face and, thankfully, it’s also treatable.
Understanding Hyperpigmentation And How It Develops
Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin, the pigment responsible for our skin colour, is produced in certain areas of the skin. Sun exposure, hormonal changes, and even certain medications can trigger this overproduction. After a long summer, you might notice new spots or darker skin in areas that were exposed to the sun. These changes not only affect your skin’s appearance but can also impact its texture and overall health, which can lead you to pursuing hyperpigmentation treatments in order to regain skin clarity and quality.
Why Autumn Is The Perfect Time For Hyperpigmentation Treatments
Autumn and winter are ideal seasons to start your hyperpigmentation treatments. With reduced sun exposure, the risk of post-treatment pigmentation is minimised, allowing your skin to heal and regenerate more effectively. At Define Clinic, we utilise advanced diagnostic tools like the Visia skin analysis to assess the extent of sun damage and develop a bespoke treatment plan just for you. Visia provides us with a detailed look at the quality of your skin and helps us to pinpoint exactly where the damage lies.
Personalised Hyperpigmentation Treatments At Define Clinic
Laser treatments are highly effective in addressing hyperpigmentation. The BBL Sciton uses broadband light to target pigmented areas and stimulate collagen production, improving skin tone and texture. MOXI, on the other hand, is a gentler option for more sensitive skin types. Both treatments are non-invasive, involve minimal downtime, and are known for their ability to treat various forms of hyperpigmentation. There is even research to suggest that BBL Sciton can actually reverse DNA changes at a cellular level, giving you younger skin.
We offer a variety of hyperpigmentation treatments beyond laser therapy to address your concerns effectively. One popular option is chemical peels, which use a combination of acids to exfoliate the skin, remove damaged outer layers, and promote the growth of new, even-toned skin. Chemical peels can be customised to various depths, depending on the severity of the pigmentation. Another effective treatment is medical-grade microneedling, which involves using fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production and encouraging cell turnover, resulting in a more uniform skin tone.
Sometimes, a simple adjustment to your skincare routine can make a significant difference. Our experts will recommend products that promote skin renewal and fade dark spots, such as retinoids, vitamin C serums, and other proven ingredients.
