All you need to know
What is Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation refers to areas of skin that appear darker than the surrounding skin due to an increase in melanin production. It can appear as small patches, larger areas, or, in rare cases, across the entire body.
These discoloured areas typically range in shades of brown, black, grey, red, or pink. While hyperpigmentation is usually harmless, it can sometimes be a symptom of an underlying medical condition, so if you have any concerns, it’s always best to consult your GP or a skincare professional.
What Causes Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation occurs due to an increase in melanin, the natural pigment responsible for skin, hair, and eye colour. It can be triggered by UV exposure, hormonal changes, ageing, skin injuries, and inflammation.

Your Questions Answered
What does hyperpigmentation look like?
Hyperpigmentation appears as discoloured patches on the skin, which can range in size from small spots to larger areas, and in some cases, it may cover most of the body. These patches are typically brown, black, grey, red, or pink.
Where can hyperpigmentation develop?
Hyperpigmentation can develop anywhere on the body.
How long can hyperpigmentation last?
Hyperpigmentation can last anywhere from six months to several years, depending on the cause and skin type. However, we offer advanced treatments designed to accelerate the fading process and restore an even skin tone more quickly.
How can I prevent hyperpigmentation?
As UV exposure accelerates melanin production, we strongly recommend wearing broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily to protect the skin and prevent further pigmentation.
