Pigmentation

Radiance in varied tones, Pigmentation refers to the natural coloring of the skin, caused by the presence of melanin, a pigment produced by melanocyte cells. It plays a significant role in determining an individual's skin tone and is responsible for the variation in colour across different skin types.

While pigmentation is a natural and normal aspect of the skin, it can sometimes manifest in forms such as freckles, age spots, sunspots, melasma, or uneven patches. These variations in pigmentation occur when melanin production becomes uneven or excessive in certain areas of the skin. Factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes, genetics, aging, skin injuries, or inflammation can influence pigmentation irregularities. These concerns often lead to individuals seeking treatments or skincare solutions to address hyperpigmentation (excessive pigmentation) or hypopigmentation (lack of pigmentation).
