TREATMENT OF BROWN SPOTS AND IRREGULAR PIGMENTATION

Increased irregular skin pigmentation can be due to a number of problems, including solar lentigos (also called ‘sun spots’ or ‘liver spots’), freckles, solar keratoses (scaly, precancerous areas of sun damage), seborrhoeic keratoses (harmless areas of thickened skin which are usually raised and slightly waxy in texture) or melasma. Melasma tends to cause diffuse patches of pigmentation on the face of women and can be made worse with sun exposure and oestrogens (for example the contraceptive pill or pregnancy).

A variety of treatment options are available according to the individual pigment problem, including sun blocks, prescription vitamin A creams (retinoids), prescription bleaching creams, glycolic or mandelic acid products, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, cryotherapy/ freezing (using liquid nitrogen) and lasers.

At Dermatology Consulting we have three different lasers that can help pigmentation problems in different ways (the long pulse Alexandrite, the Q switch NdYag and the Fraxel lasers).

The treatment is tailored to the individual and their particular pigmentation problem.

Additional supplies can be posted to you as required.
