Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation has been a long-standing dermatological concern, with references dating back to early medical texts by Hippocrates. A 2024 study revealed that post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)—discoloration following inflammation—is more prevalent in women with darker skin tones, affecting nearly 65% of women as a result of acne. Melasma, a butterfly-shaped form of pigmentation, is also found to be nine times more common in women than in men. While some may find freckles or melasma aesthetically pleasing, for many, these conditions cause significant distress and reduced self-confidence. Importantly, hyperpigmentation often reflects deeper underlying skin imbalances or pathologies.
Different presentations of Hyperpigmentation
- Melasma – At Pachouli clinics across Delhi NCR, melasma affects approximately 17–18% of patients, indicating a notably high prevalence. It typically appears as dark brown patches on the cheeks or forehead, triggered by factors such as sun exposure, hormonal imbalances, or nutritional deficiencies. This form of pigmentation is particularly stubborn and often poses a significant challenge for physicians to treat effectively.
- Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation — Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) – PIH is the darkening of the skin that occurs after an external injury, internal trauma, or acne. It is particularly common in individuals with medium to darker skin tones, especially those with Fitzpatrick skin types III and IV. This condition often develops as a natural response to inflammation and can be persistent without proper treatment.
- Freckles / ephelides – Freckles are a common form of hyperpigmentation, often observed in individuals living in high-altitude regions or those with frequent UVB exposure. At Pachouli, we offer advanced and premium technologies designed to effectively treat freckles and reduce overall hyperpigmentation.
- Solar lentigines, or sun spots and age spots — Solar lentigines—also known as sun spots, age spots, or liver spots—are a form of pigment hyperplasia commonly linked to prolonged sun exposure, laser treatments, or genetic factors.
Can Hyperpigmentation be cured permanently?
While hyperpigmentation may not be completely reversible in all cases, treatment can significantly reduce its appearance and enhance overall skin health. At Pachouli, our goal is not only to lighten pigmentation but also to improve skin quality and vitality. We offer a wide range of advanced treatments—from PRP and Q-Switch to ClearLift and PicoSure—all designed to target excess melanin, promote even skin tone, and rejuvenate the skin.
