Pigmentation / Melasma

What Are Hyperpigmentation / Melasma?

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition characterized by the darkening of certain areas due to an excess production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. As a result, patches or spots of darker skin may appear, affecting individuals of all skin types and tones. Many seek laser for pigmentation treatments to effectively reduce these dark spots and achieve a more even skin tone.
