Hyperpigmentation is the name given to patches of darker skin pigment that can appear on the face and body; these ‘tea stain’ like areas can appear for a number of reasons and are caused by an overproduction of melanin which is produced naturally by the skin as a form of protection. The causes of hyperpigmentation vary, some of which we can try and control and some we cannot.
There are some areas more commonly affected by hyperpigmentation such as, the forehead, hands, upper lip are just some of the more likely areas for concern. Expert treatments and topical skincare regimes can improve the look of the dark spots on the skin and with careful management, can be maintained. Hyperpigmentation can appear anywhere and at anytime and here are some of the causes:
-Over exposure to the sun, where hyperpigmentation is a form of sun damage
-Hormones caused by pregnancy whereby the dark spots are known as melasma
-Reaction to the use of potent skincare and light-based treatments
Hyperpigmentation can be ageing and recovering a more even skin tone can give a brighter, more luminous and therefore more youthful complexion. If you have a history of hyperpigmentation it is advisable to always wear sun protection to help deter the skin from over-producing its own defence mechanism, melanin. Maintaining a good skincare regime as well as tackling existing hyperpigmentation with expertly recommended treatments, can help give you long-term, glowing skin.

Dr Saleki is the sweetest and most professional Dr ever! I was really nervous and she completely put me at ease for my fox eye thread lift!
I was a bit nervous, Dr Mahsa was lovely, she couldn’t of been more professional and kind. I had nose threads and the procedure was quick and apart from a bit of discomfort with the anaesthetic, the rest was totally pain free. I am 3 days post treatment and still a bit swollen but other than that everything has been very smooth and I feel fine. I’m excited to see the settled results. Would I recommend, 100% yes.
First time I every had any treatment and it was a brilliant experience, The Dr was very Calm and compassionate and clear. I read about a treatment threading but she said I didn’t need it and suggested fillers and fat dissolving which has work for me, definitely go again even though it took me over 2hours to get there.
