Q&A

PIGMENTATION

What is Pigmentation?

• Pigmentation is the presence of dark (hyperactive pigmentation) or light (hypo pigmentation) patches on the skin. This condition is common and may present in a variety of forms. Pigmentation, especially on the face and exposed areas, can affect the overall emotional well-being and self-esteem of the individual.

Why does Hyper-Pigmentation occur?

• You get your skin colour from a pigment called melanin, which essentially protects you from the damaging effects of the sun. Excessive exposure to the sun causes this pigment to be produced in excess. An increase in the activity or production of this melanin can cause an uneven ?freckly? appearance on the surface of the skin. These areas of hyper-pigmentation are called lentigens and are commonly referred to as age spots.

What factors contribute to Hyper-Pigmentation?

• Sun Exposure
• Pregnancy & Birth Control- hormonal changes during pregnancy and the use of birth control pills may also cause hyper-pigmentation in some cases
• Topical & Oral Antibiotics
• Perfumes
• Painkillers

Pigmentation Myths

• Dark patches on the skin are incurable- Melasma or other patches can be treated, but in some cases, they do reoccur. It is, therefore, important to treat them consistently.
• Sunscreen is needed only when you have an outdoor event / job - It is the most common of myths and untrue. It is important to use sunscreen even when you are at home during daytime. Sunrays can inflict permanent damage on your skin and when it comes to pigmentation, exposure can be the root cause.
• Children inherit pigmentation from their parents - Not necessarily true. Some types of pigmentation can be inherited or have a genetic basis, but most of them are acquired through inflammation.
• High-end laser treatments and peels will cure pigmentation - While some kinds of pigmentation, such as acne-induced pigmentation or DPNs, can be cured completely, many forms can only be significantly lightened.
