Even Tone helps aid Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a common type of hyperpigmentation that occurs following skin inflammation or injury. This condition is characterized by the darkening of the skin in areas where inflammation or injury has occurred. 

Hyperpigmentation can be a persistent issue influenced by various factors such as hormonal changes, sun exposure, and aging. It often requires consistent and targeted skincare efforts to effectively address.

Before treating discoloration, we first determine how the skin is producing pigment — because not all dark spots are the same. Some pigment is simply stored on the surface, some is left behind after inflammation, and some is continuously recreated by internal signals like heat or hormones. This is where our Melanin Metabolism™ approach comes in:

WHAT IS HYPERPIGMENTATION?

Hyperpigmentation is a darkening of the skin that leaves some areas darker than others.

Hyperpigmentation can manifest in various forms and severity levels, ranging from light freckles to more pronounced discoloration like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), melasma, and uneven skin tone caused by photoaging or other factors. No Matter the cause, the disparity in your complexion can be reason enough to want to correct it.

Here's how it typically happens:

1. Inflammatory Response: When the skin experiences inflammation or injury, such as acne, cuts, burns, or other trauma, it triggers an inflammatory response. This response can lead to the production of excess melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color.

2. Increased Melanin Production: Melanin is produced by melanocytes, specialized cells found in the skin's epidermis. In response to inflammation or injury, melanocytes may become overactive and produce more melanin than usual. This excess melanin accumulates in the affected area, causing it to become darker in color.

3. Appearance of Dark Spots: As a result of increased melanin production, dark spots or patches may develop on the skin. These areas of hyperpigmentation can range in size, shape, and intensity, depending on the severity of the inflammation or injury.

4. Persistence of Hyperpigmentation: PIH can persist for weeks, months, or even years after the initial inflammatory event has resolved. In some cases, PIH may fade on its own over time, while in others, it may require treatment to improve its appearance.
