Pigmentation
The discoloration of the skin caused by internal physical factors and/or external factors which can include hormonal changes, sun exposure, skin type, trauma, and the skin’s natural aging process. Surface pigmentation usually affects lighter skin tones and is usually created by sun damage, for example; Sunspots, Age spots, Freckles. Deeper Pigmentation can be caused by trauma, medications, or hormonal factors, and can be manifested by Pigmented acne scarring, Birthmarks, or Chloasma/Melasma.
Dermapen Treatments are highly effective for treating pigmentation, particularly on dark skin colors, where laser treatments may not be the safest option. As melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) are directly targeted, a repair and corrective process encourage an even skin tone creating a radiant appearance.
