AECMC for Skin Care Abu Dhabi offers customized complete solutions for Skin Pigmentation-a condition where your skin changes color and manifests as patches over your body. The ‘melanin’ pigment is responsible for the color of your skin. Melanin is produced by skin cells (melanocytes). Melanocytes protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun. Irregular synthesis or accumulation of melanin causes pigmentation. When melanocytes are damaged, melanin production is affected resulting in overproduction or underproduction of melanin resulting in darker or lighter areas which appear on your skin.

damage.

wrinkles, freckles, lentigo (age spots), brown warty lesions (seborrheoic
keratosis) and light spots.
