What is Hyperpigmentation?

Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin forms in the skin, leading to dark patches or spots. Common causes include:

  • Sun exposure
  • Acne scars
  • Hormonal changes (melasma)
  • Inflammation or injury (PIH – post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)

Apgujeong EU:GENES Skin Clinic Expert Solutions for Hyperpigmentation

1. Laser Treatments

Advanced lasers such as Pico Laser, Q-switched Nd:YAG, and Fraxel safely break down pigmentation without damaging surrounding skin. Ideal for:

  • Sun spots and age spots
  • Freckles and melasma
  • Acne-related dark marks

2. Chemical Peels

Mild peels exfoliate the skin and accelerate cell turnover to fade pigmentation and reveal brighter skin . Customized formulas are available for sensitive or darker skin tones.

3. Microneedling with Skin Boosters

This combination treatment stimulates collagen and improves overall skin texture while fading pigmentation gradually with healing boosters like Rejuran or exosome therapy .

4. Topical Treatments & Skin Care Plans

EU:GENES Clinic’s doctors may recommend medical-grade creams and serums as part of an at-home regimen to maintain results and prevent future pigmentation.
