PIGMENTATION TREATMENT IN LUDHIANA
Hyper-Pigmentation occurs when external or internal factors generate an increased melanin production. The skin becomes discolored, mostly on the most frequently exposed areas. There are many forms of hyper-pigmentation, as pigment spots ( age spots and freckles), the Melasma and post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation.
HYPER-PIGMENTATION: WHAT IT IS AND HOW TO RECOGNIZE THE SIGNS? WHAT CAUSES OF POST-INFLAMMATORY HYPER PIGMENTATION? If a wound, a rash, a stain, or otherwise causes in ammation of the skin, this active in ammation melanocytes (cells producing melanin) which release melanosomes in large amounts (pigment granules). These melanosomes contain tyrosinase (the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of melanin pigmentation) and of the synthesized melanin. It is the melanin that gives the skin, the hair and the hair color. The pigment granules acumulent and discolor the area that suffered the injury, and long after the original injury has disappeared.
WHAT TO DO AGAINST HYPER PIGMENTATION ? The Chemical peels involve applying an acid solution on the face, hands or feet to remove the surface layers of skin. Under the effect of these chemicals, the skin may eventually flake off, revealing an evenly pigmented skin. The laser treatments have the same effect but are usually more accurate, the dermatologist exercising greater control over the intensity of treatment. They are to eliminate the areas affected by means of high energy light beams. The mildest treatments work only on the epidermis (outer layer of skin), while more intense treatments penetrate the deeper skin layers. These dermatological treatments can be very effective against hyper pigmentation, but they are relatively expensive and invasive. Moreover, insofar as they can cause irritation, inflammation and even skin burns, they are likely to cause post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation, especially in people with dark skin.
