Pigmentation Treatments

Prèface Cosmetic Treatments & Procedures for Pigmentation

At Prèface Cosmetic, pigmentation concerns are assessed during a consultation, taking into account skin history, contributing factors and a clinical evaluation of the skin.

Following assessment, a tailored treatment plan may be discussed. Depending on individual circumstances, options may include:

How Pigmentation Can Develop

Pigmentation changes occur when melanocytes increase melanin production or when pigment is distributed unevenly within the skin. These changes can be triggered by a range of internal and external factors. In some cases, pigmentation may develop following inflammation or irritation. In others, it may be associated with hormonal influences or environmental exposure.

The depth of pigment within the skin can also vary, which may influence how it appears on the surface.

Factors That Contribute

A number of factors may influence the development of pigmentation. These can vary between individuals and often occur in combination.

Common contributing factors include:

• Ultraviolet (UV) exposure
• Hormonal influences
• Skin inflammation or injury
• Genetic predisposition
• Certain medications or topical products
• Skin type and baseline pigmentation

Ongoing or repeated triggers may influence how pigmentation develops or persists.
