What Is Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage?

Hyperpigmentation refers to areas of the skin that appear darker due to excess melanin production, often triggered by sun exposure, inflammation, or hormonal changes. Sun damage can also cause uneven tone, discoloration, and visible signs of aging over time. These changes may present as dark patches, spots, or an overall uneven complexion. While common, they can affect how smooth and radiant your skin appears. Treatment focuses on reducing pigment buildup and restoring a more balanced skin tone.

What Causes Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage?

Sun Exposure

UV rays stimulate excess melanin production, leading to dark spots.
Conditions like melasma are chronic pigment conditions triggered by hormonal fluctuations, UV exposure, and heat.
Acne or skin irritation can leave behind post-inflammatory pigmentation.
A compromised skin barrier can increase inflammation and worsen discoloration.
Over time, cumulative sun exposure contributes to discoloration.
Pollution and external stressors can impact skin tone and clarity.
