Understanding Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation refers to darkened patches of skin caused by excess melanin production. It can appear as age spots, sun spots, melasma, or post-inflammatory marks left after acne. While common, these pigment concerns can be frustrating—especially when they affect confidence and makeup-free comfort.

At Peonia Medical, we specialise in customised hyperpigmentation treatments that restore even skin tone using evidence-based techniques and medical-grade products.

What Causes Hyperpigmentation?

Several factors contribute to uneven pigmentation, including:

• Sun exposure: UV rays trigger melanin production.

• Hormonal changes: Pregnancy or birth control can cause melasma.

• Inflammation: Acne or skin injuries can leave dark marks.

• Ageing: Slower skin renewal can lead to uneven tone.

Understanding the cause helps your aesthetic specialist design the most effective treatment plan.

Trending Treatments for Hyperpigmentation in 2025

1. Chemical Peels

Peels with glycolic acid, TCA, or salicylic acid help resurface the skin and fade pigmentation by accelerating cell turnover.

2. Laser Therapy

Laser treatments target pigment at its source, breaking down melanin clusters and revealing clearer skin beneath.

3. Microneedling with Serums

This combination stimulates collagen production and enhances serum absorption to improve overall tone and texture.

4. Prescription Skin Lightening

Topical products with ingredients like hydroquinone alternatives, vitamin C, and niacinamide work gradually to brighten dark spots.

5. LED & IPL Therapy

These light-based treatments are gentle, non-invasive options ideal for those with sensitive skin or mild pigmentation.

No two complexions are the same. That’s why Peonia Medical focuses on personalised skin assessments to identify your pigmentation type—epidermal, dermal, or mixed. This precision ensures every session is safe and targeted for lasting results.

• Apply SPF 50 daily to prevent pigment from darkening.
