Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern characterised by the darkening of certain areas or patches of the skin due to increased melanin production. It can occur as a result of factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, acne and skin injuries. At Avané Clinic in Nairobi, we offer advanced hyperpigmentation treatment options designed to target excess pigmentation and improve uneven skin tone. Depending on the type and severity of pigmentation, your treatment may involve technologies and procedures such as laser therapy, chemical peels, microneedling or other targeted skin-rejuvenation treatments. A personalised assessment helps determine the most suitable approach for your skin and pigmentation concerns.
How does hyperpigmentation treatment work?
Hyperpigmentation treatment focuses on reducing the appearance of excess pigmentation and creating a more even-looking skin tone. One approach is laser therapy, which uses controlled energy to target pigment within the skin. Depending on the type of laser and pigmentation being treated, this energy can break down excess pigment so that it can be naturally cleared by the body over time. Treatment may also help improve the overall appearance of uneven skin tone and texture. Because hyperpigmentation can have different causes, our dermatologists assess your skin carefully before recommending a suitable treatment approach based on your individual pigmentation and skin type.
What to expect during hyperpigmentation treatment?
During hyperpigmentation treatment at Avané Clinic, you can expect a comprehensive consultation with our experienced dermatologist to assess your skin condition and discuss your treatment goals. Depending on your unique needs, treatment may involve multiple sessions of laser therapy, each tailored to your skin type and concerns. Our team will guide you through each step of the treatment process, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout.
