Skin pigmentation or brown spots on the skin are very common, especially in Asians. Genetic predisposition, sun exposure, hormonal changes, and previous inflammation in the skin can all contribute to skin pigmentation. Pigmentation may present differently at different ages:
- Birthmarks such as café Au lait are brown.
- Becker’s naevus refers to Childhood/adolescence with freckles.
- Middle age includes sun spots, freckles, age spots, melasma, and Hori’s naevus.
It is vital to see a trusted dermatologist get an accurate diagnosis before embarking on any treatment.
What to do if you have hyperpigmentation on your skin?
It is important that you protect yourself from the sun. There is more to skin health than clean skin. The best skin care includes wearing a hat, avoiding the sun between noon and 2pm, and applying sunscreen. Sun exposure can make you older. Twin studies show that the amount of sun each twin is exposed to affects their skin aging rates.
If you are dealing with hyperpigmentation, you should know that you are not alone. There are a number of different treatment options for hyperpigmentation, which is a common skin condition. Here are the lists to help you sort the best treatment that is right for you:
Face acid facial treatment
Face acids, or skin acids, work by exfoliating or shedding the top layer of your skin Whenever you exfoliate your skin, new skin cells emerge to replace the old ones. The process smooths your skin tone and makes it overall more even, especially if you use it in a darker area.
There are many OTC face acids at drugstores and beauty stores. There are a number of popular options, such as:
- azelaic acid
- alpha-hydroxy acids, such as glycolic, lactic, citric, malic, or tartaric acid
- vitamin C (in the form of l-ascorbic acid)
- kojic acid
- salicylic acid
Gold facial
Gold is great for improving and protecting your skin. It’s been used by Roman and Egyptian skin care experts for centuries. A gold facial can increase skin elasticity, and reduce fine lines, blemishes, and marks on the skin. If you want to keep your skin looking young, fresh, and spot-free, this is a must. Book this treatment at Kelly Oriental and get your even-toned skin gradually with our pigmentation removal services.
Gem facial
Diamonds, most notably, are often used to exfoliate your skin pigmentation facial treatment. They are a fantastic scrubbing ingredient. They leave your skin feeling softer and cleaner than ever.

Light and laser treatment
There are lots of different types of light and laser treatments that can significantly reduce the look of pigmentation.
Broad Band Light (BBL) and HALO treatments can be used to clear sun freckles and provide a deep and long-lasting skin tone. Blue Light Therapy, also known as photofacial, is a very popular treatment to reduce the appearance of scars on the skin. This treatment uses a series of short, high-intensity light blasts to make your skin appear younger, even-toned, and more refined.
You will look and feel better with HALO because you will look and glow younger. It is perfect for people with aging, damaged, or hyperpigmented skin. Fraxel is a fractional CO2 laser treatment It isn’t as damaging as a laser treatment. Depending on your skin type, there are many different options to choose from. If you want to find your best option, your doctor should be able to tell you where to go.
Be warned that laser treatments are more than just fun – they’re also super effective! Use laser therapy with great caution in melasma, since it can cause the skin condition to worsen and then rebound. With Kelly Oriental licensed therapist, dermatologist, and esthetician, you will get the right result and treatment.
Vitamin facial
Vitamins A, C, and E are usually used for treatments. In order to have a bright, even skin tone, it’s important to know the best vitamins that work for you. A multi-vitamin facial treatment can help give your skin a healthier look, reduce fine lines and wrinkling, and make it glow from within.
Flower facial
Beautiful flowers can work miracles for our skin. They have antiseptic properties that can keep them healthy and also help fade scars and stretch marks. They are an amazing and effective way to treat your skin, lighten your skin, and get rid of scars and marks. While there are many benefits to using them, one of the most important is that they enhance skin clarity, which gives skin a smoother appearance.
Chemical peel
Chemical peels use acids to remove dead skin cells. Hyperpigmentation is reduced when the skin is removed. These are used for scars on the skin. Skin care professionals use OTC products to improve their clients’ skin. This product is more potent and fast-acting.
If you have sensitive skin you shouldn’t use home or office peels. There are side effects to these pigmentation removal treatments. Talk to your doctor about the risks you need to consider, including what kind of treatments are safe for you, and what kind may be riskier. If you use this product wrong, blisters or scars can develop.
Chemical peels are only good for a limited number of skin types including skin pigmentation, so if you’re out in the sun regularly, chemical peels can leave your skin a bit sensitive to the sun. Your skin is vulnerable to the damaging effects of sunlight. Make sure to adequately apply sunscreen to avoid worsening your hyperpigmentation. You should take extra precautions for at least one week after your last chemical peel.
