Hyperpigmentation is a common condition where areas of the skin are darker than the surrounding skin. The skin cells responsible for producing colour in the skin are called melanocyte cells or melanin. These skin cells are located in the deeper layers of the epidermis. Hyperpigmentation may be caused by internal and external causes. Internal causes include hormonal imbalances such as pregnancy. The number one external cause for hyperpigmentation is sun exposure. Spots of brown may appear with sun exposure without the use of a sunblock. Age spots and freckles become darker when exposed to the UV rays. This darkening effect occurs due to the skin’s natural protection against the sun. Hyperpigmentation treatments are available to get rid of brown spots. Photorejuvenation is the best hyperpigmentation treatment available.
Facial hair can be frustrating and embarrassing for women. If is not uncommon for women to grow facial hair anywhere from the chin and anterior neck, sideburns, upper and lower lip, cheeks, etc. The reason for this growth may be genetic and often times hormonal. The jawline and anterior neck in particular is a very hormonal area. Those who undergo a lot of stress, undergo pregnancy, menopause, and/or any underlying cause for hormonal imbalances may notice increased hair growth in the chin and jaw area. Facial hair laser removal is a great option for eliminating this unwanted hair, however since the face is very hormonally stimulated a touch up may be required every so often to treat any new hair growth.
Microdermabrasion is a deep exfoliation of the skin. Depending on the condition of the skin, microdermabrasion can be used as an anti-aging treatment or with a series of closely spaced sessions, microdermabrasion may be used to diminish scarring and uneven skin tones. It also helps breakout prone skins by removing dead surface cells which can stick to oily skins and clog the pores. Breakouts or acne form when the skin does not regenerate properly. Keratinized skin cells build on the skin’s surface trapping bacteria. Naturally this entrapment develops into infection and ultimately blemishes.
