Reclaim that angelic and revitalized fresh skin you always wanted with our special anti-melanin peels

Color of the skin and hair is determined by the presence of melanin, the brown pigment that is produced in the cells called Melanocytes. When an excess of melanin forms in the skin, patches of skin become darker than the normal surrounding skin. This condition is called Hyperpigmentation. It can result in freckles, melasma, sunspots, post inflammatory hyperpigmentation etc.

A person may develop hyperpigmentation due to various reasons.

CAUSES:

• Hormonal changes
• Ageing process
• Genetic tendencies
• UV rays and free radicals
• Drugs

 
Sunscreens are essential in the treatment of melasma. They should be broad spectrum, protecting against both UVA and UVB rays from the sun. A SPF 25 or higher should be selected. Sunscreens should be worn daily, whether or not it is sunny outside, or if you are outdoors or indoors. A significant amount of ultraviolet rays is received while walking down the street, driving in cars, and sitting next to windows.

• Any facial cleansers, creams, or make-up which irritates the skin should be stopped, as this may worsen the melasma.
• If melasma develops after starting birth control pills, it may improve after discontinuing them.

Management of melasma requires a comprehensive and professional approach. It is important to follow the directions of our dermatologist carefully in order to get the maximum benefit from your treatment regimen
