Hyperpigmentation Treatment in Derby

Hyperpigmentation can present in several forms:

Sunspots (Solar Lentigines) – Dark spots caused by prolonged sun exposure, commonly appearing on the face and hands.

Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) – Dark marks left behind after acne, injury or skin inflammation.

Melasma – Hormonal pigmentation that appears in symmetrical patches on the face.

Each type requires a tailored treatment approach depending on its depth and cause.

Common causes include:

• Sun and UV exposure
• Hormonal fluctuations
• Acne and skin trauma
• Inflammation
• Certain medications
• Genetic predisposition

UV exposure is one of the leading triggers, making daily sun protection essential both during and after treatment.

Effective treatment must address melanin production at its source rather than simply exfoliating the surface.

At Facial Perfection, Cosmelan is one of our most effective professional depigmentation treatments. It works by:

• Breaking down existing pigmentation
• Inhibiting the enzyme responsible for melanin formation
• Reducing the risk of recurrence
• Improving skin brightness and clarity

Treatment plans are customised following a detailed skin assessment to ensure safe, effective and long-lasting results.

Costs vary depending on the severity and depth of pigmentation. During your consultation, we provide transparent pricing and a personalised treatment plan tailored to your skin’s needs.
