What is hyperpigmentation? When there is an injury to the skin such as acne or sun damage, the skin instinctively tries to renew itself. In so doing, it also ends up producing more melanin than needed. Melanin is the naturally-occurring pigment present in the skin and hair. Too much melanin production is what leads to hyperpigmentation, scars, and freckles. Sun exposure is also responsible for promoting hyperpigmentation.

8. Laser skin
lightening works by
delivering light
beams into the skin
to stimulate the
renewal of new,
healthy-looking,
lighter-coloured
skin cells.

9. When a light
beam is
delivered to
highly
pigmented
areas, the cells
that produce
melanin are
damaged.

damaged cells can
no longer produce
melanin.
