Pigmentation Skin Program

Pigmentation is a common skin condition that presents as areas of darker or uneven skin tone on the face. The darkening occurs because of an excess of melanin production in the area - this can be caused by environmental factors such as the sun or hormonal changes.  Melasma is another form of pigmentation that is caused by hormonal changes and is quite common to occur during pregnancy.  Pigmentation is one of those skin conditions that requires a commitment and ongoing management - and most importantly protection from UV exposure.
