What is pigmentation and hyperpigmentation?

Pigmentation is a complex process that determines the colour of our skin, hair, and eyes. It is controlled by specialised cells called melanocytes, which are found in the basal layer of the skin’s epidermis. These cells produce a pigment called melanin, which is responsible for giving our skin its unique shade. The skin concern pigmentation arises when this complex process becomes unbalanced and creates hyperpigmentation. Some melanocytes become overactive, leading to darker patches and discolouration. Hyperpigmentation can come in many different forms including discolouration, sunspots, age spots, dark spots uneven skin tone and brown marks.

How to manage pigmentation:

Pigmentation can be stubborn and will require a 100% skincare approach including a combination of targeted treatments, supplements, and topical creams to address and fade this skin concern.

Time and dedication are key when targeting pigmentation. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, a spot that is a few shades darker than your natural skin colour may take from 6-12 months to fade and for more stubborn pigmentation, it can take years ^[1]. Be patient – the results will come.
