Pigmentation from pregnancy is relatively common. We would look to skin peels to remove the pigmentation safely and effectively. The peels would also brighten the skin, even out overall skin tone and produce great glowing skin health.
Post-inflammatory can also show itself on the face, back, or chest. This is caused by a previous trauma to the skin such as an acne scar or acne scarring. Acne scarring would be treated at the Beaconsfield skin, with microneedling or skin-needling. The slightly penetrating needles would themselves cause trauma to the pigmentated area of the skin would help the skin revise, restore and rebuild itself with new skin cells.
Age spots, sometimes known as brown spots or liver spots are generally brown in colour but also maybe seen as grey or black. They are caused as we age. As one ages, a cluster of age spots often appear on the back of the hands, especially when they are exposed once again to the sunshine. On the cheeks, it is not uncommon for one larger age spot or brown spot to appear.
Age spots are not cancerous but we would always recommend speaking to your GP if you are ever in any doubt about the colour or size of one or more of these sun spots or age spots.
At the skin clinic in Beaconsfield, we will look at all cases on their merit. Sometimes we will be looking at a skin peel or a DMK skin revision treatment. For other clients, we may consider micro-needling / skin needling or CryoPen / Cryotherapy Or we may some or all of those treatments. It really does depend on the type of skin condition, skin type and quality of the skin.
At the Skin Revision Clinic, we do not use IPL or Laser to treat age spots, pigmentation or sun damage. We firmly believe that the more natural long-term way to treat these skin conditions is via a DMK Skin Revision programme or micro-needling / skin needling.

It is important to protect your body as much as possible, Ideally, if outside, use a minimum of SPF 30 every day. If you check your full body readily, you will be in the best decision to see if any new pigmentation has risen to the surface. A vast majority of pigmentation is caused just by ageing but if you are unsure about any new blemishes on your body then it is advisable to seek advice from a doctor or Dermatologist skin specialist. They can determine if the lesions or blemishes are benign or if a biopsy is needed to determine if it is cancerous or not.
Age spots are generally caused by the ageing of the skin. They can appear anywhere on the body. However, just like sunspots, they are more prevalent for those who have been exposed to the sun and therefore, the age spots or sunspots can be seen more on the face, arms, hands, and legs. It is known as sun damage.
Before any treatment for pigmentation on Asian or black skin takes place, a thorough skin consultation would be necessary at Skin Revision. If it is determined that the skin tone is at a certain level, then it may be that treatment cannot be performed. This is due to pigmentation causing.
