Pigmented lesions
Melanin is a natural pigment that determines the color of the skin, eyes and hair.
What are pigmented lesions?
Excessive production of melanin in a specific area can lead to the appearance of a dark spot, or pigmented lesion, on the skin.
Such excess melanin can be caused by:
- Sun exposure
- Aging
- Hereditary or congenital factors
If you suffer from any kind of skin discoloration, you are not alone. Indeed, pigment spots and facial discoloration are among the top reasons for cosmetic visits to dermatologists.
Despite the failure of your previous attempts to eliminate your lesions, newer technologies make it possible to obtain remarkable results. Laser treatments are a breakthrough in skincare that seem to defy time while treating the skin non-invasively.
