When a doctor evaluates a patient's skin, he will definitely pay attention to the presence of hyperpigmentation. Violation of melanogenesis directly indicates the progression of photoaging.
In order to improve skin color, eliminate age spots, various local remedies are used, however, it is most effective to use chemical peels.
On what the tactics of hyperpigmentation treatment depends on, as well as the benefits of peeling for the correction of age spots, read on estet-portal.com in this article.
What increases the risk of hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is one of the most common pigmentation disorders and is common in women with darker complexion (Fitzpatrick skin type IV & VI).
Cheeks, upper lip, chin, and forehead are the most common spots, but other sun-exposed areas may occasionally occur.
Research points to the possible role of several risk factors in the development of hyperpigmentation, such as genetics, sunlight, age, gender, hormones, pregnancy, thyroid dysfunction, cosmetics and medications.
Injection therapy for hyperpigmentation
Levels of discoloration
There are a number of different treatment options, but there are still no systematic and clinically applicable treatment algorithms and guidelines that could be the definitive treatment for melasma and other pigmentation problems.
Hyperpigmentation therapy is a multi-focus treatment. It is necessary that it be directed to both the epidermis and the dermis.
Melanin is distributed throughout the epidermis and the epidermal type is the most common type of hyperpigmentation. Topical treatment is most effective for this type of hyperpigmentation.
In dermal or mixed hyperpigmentation, due to the depth of melanin pigments, pigmentation is more difficult to treat. Chemical peeling causes controlled destruction of the epidermis/dermis to stimulate skin cell regeneration and improve the epidermal component. This allows you to get a double effect – removing age spots and at the same time increasing the effectiveness of local treatment.

Peelings to correct hyperpigmentation
Company «Academy of Scientific Beauty» offers two types of peels: brightening and hybrid stabilized peeling. BeneBellum® Lumpeel COSMO Brightening Peel contains 3% tranexamic acid, lactic, salicylic, citric and mandelic acids.
Peeling has excellent brightening properties for uneven skin tone, sun and age spots, hyperpigmentation and dullness, and reduces visible skin imperfections.

This is a chemical peel that affects the epidermis down to the basal layer for effective, gentle exfoliation. It improves the texture and appearance of the skin, evens out skin tone, firms it and provides a lifting effect.
Proper patient selection, proper history taking, skin preparation and subsequent use of home care products are essential to achieve the desired effects of a peel.
