Brown Spots and Hyperpigmentation

Brown Spots and Hyperpigmentation

Our skin color is determined primarily by the melanin concentration, which is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, there are many types of pigmentary disorders, which may be inherited or acquired (infection, side effects of a disease, etc.), influencing our skin tone and appearance.

Featuring a variety of solutions for hyperpigmentation, Viora’s V-IPL treatments dramatically reduce hyperpigmentation lesions, making the skin tone even and bright. While using Viora’s V-IPL handpiece with PCR™ Technology, the high concentration of melanin in the pigmented lesion is affected by light, leading to local coagulation and consequential removal of the affected skin cells.

We are committed to providing safe, healthy treatments with minimum discomfort and maximum results for even skin tone and hyperpigmentation free skin you ever dreamt.

    V-IPL

    V-IPL Photofacial targets pigmentation irregularities with controlled light pulses, breaking down brown spots and revealing a brighter, more uniform complexion.

    Chemical Peel

    Chemical peels exfoliate the skin’s surface, removing damaged layers to diminish the visibility of discoloration and promote a radiant, even-toned appearance.

    Microneedling

    Microneedling stimulates natural skin renewal by creating micro-injuries that encourage collagen production, improving the appearance of brown spots and uneven pigmentation.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What causes brown spots and hyperpigmentation?

    They are often caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes, or aging. Some disorders affect just patches of the skin, while others affect the entire body, with different “diffusion” within the skin, in lateral direction and depth. Moreover, the pigmentary disorders may appear due to an increase in the concentration of Melanocytes and some in the Melanin production itself.

    • The main factor for most of the hyper-pigmentation disorders is, of course, direct sun exposure. By protecting our skin with high factor SPF creams, we protect our skin from reoccurrence and aggravation.
    • The range of pigmented lesions can vary between small discreet lesions to large. Shape and location within the skin are important as it affects the treatment strategy. Therefore, only after professional diagnosis should the treatment regimen be proposed.
