TREATMENT FOR PIGMENTATION?
- Many people suffer from pigmentation disorder and feel distressed. Pigmentation or hyperpigmentation is a skin problem in which the skin gets affected and gets discolored or unusually dark-colored.
- The cause behind this is melanin. Human skin gets its color from a pigment called melanin, which is made from special cells called melanocytes in the skin. If melanocytes are producing too much melanin the skin is darker. If the melanin production is less, the person has lighter skin.
- Sometimes melanocytes are damaged due to some health issues and the production of melanin gets affected (producing excessive melanin), and discoloration or dark patches start appearing on the surface of the skin. Sometimes just a few patches of skin are affected by pigmentation, but sometimes the skin on the entire body displays pigmentation.
- While the appearance of pigmentation in itself isn’t harmful but its underlying causes or medical issues would need attention.
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF PIGMENTATION?
- Various reasons cause pigmentation. Women may be affected by pigmentation during Pregnancy. People who are overexposed to the sun face this issue. Another reason for pigmentation is Addison’s disease.
WHAT ARE THE REMEDIES FOR PIGMENTATION?
- I use a very effective topical anesthetic to numb the skin, making the treatment very comfortable.
