What Causes Hyperpigmentation and Why Do I Have It?

Hyperpigmentation occurs when melanocytes—the cells responsible for pigment—produce too much melanin in certain areas. This can be triggered by sun damage, hormonal fluctuations (such as during pregnancy or menopause), inflammation from acne or injuries, medications, and genetic predisposition. Common types include:

  • Sun spots (actinic lentigines): Brown or black patches caused by UV exposure.
  • Post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation: Dark marks left after acne, eczema, or injuries.
  • Melasma: Larger patches often triggered by hormonal changes and sun exposure.
  • Freckles: Small spots exacerbated by sunlight and genetics.

Hyperpigmentation Edmonton Treatments Frequently asked questions

Hyperpigmentation refers to darkened patches or spots on the skin caused by excess melanin production. Common forms include sun spots, melasma and post‑inflammatory marks.
UV exposure, hormonal changes, genetics and skin injuries can trigger hyperpigmentation. Inflammation from acne, eczema or allergic reactions may also leave residual dark marks.
We offer topical creams, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser therapies, microneedling, HydraFacial and PRP/mesotherapy to address different types of hyperpigmentation. Treatment plans are customised based on your skin type and pigmentation concerns.
Many clients notice improvement after one or two treatments. However, deeper or more extensive pigmentation may require several sessions spaced weeks apart for best results.
Initial lightening is often visible within 2–4 weeks, with continued improvement as the skin heals and renews. Adhering to your treatment schedule and following aftercare instructions can enhance your outcome.
Mild redness, swelling, peeling or temporary darkening may occur, depending on the procedure. Serious complications are rare when treatments are performed by qualified professionals. We discuss risks and management strategies during your consultation.
