Uneven pigmentation in the skin.

Uneven Pigmentation
What is uneven pigmentarion?
Uneven pigmentation is the appearance of uneven skin tones found on the skin. This could be random patches of darker or lighter skin, darkened patches around the eyes and mouth or liver spots.

What causes Uneven pigmentation in skin?
Uneven pigmentation can be caused by too much sun exposure, hormones or a genetic condition.  Melanin in the skin cells is not produced correctly in these cases and this is what caused the uneven pigmentation. It is something that can be reduced however a strict skin regiment must be followed to achieve this.

Treatments for ageing skin?

Advanced vitamin skin treatment – A treatment that uses concentrated doses of vitamins A and C in a serum form. It is placed on the skin and electrical current is used to push the product to the basal layer of the skin when the skin cells grow. It helps to improve the condition of the cells helping them to produce the correct amount of melanin and improving the appearance of the skin.

Cool peel – A Our cool peel facial uses a gentle chemical peel to help smoothen the skin aiding in the appearance of pigmentation. A vitamin serum is then used and electrical current is used to push this product into the skin to help encourage production of melanin which in time will improve the discolouration of the skin.
