Both internal and external
influences cause discoloration
in a range of skin types.

Post-Inflammatory Pigmentation
Triggered by various skin insults, such as acne, eczema, trauma, or dermatologic procedures.
Liver Function
Liver damage can lead to blood cell leakage and iron deposition in the skin, causing pigmentation changes.
Melasma
Melasma is a condition, mostly affecting woman, that causes dark spots on the face, especially the cheeks, forehead & upper lip.
Sun Damage
Ultraviolet radiation causes DNA changes in the skin that can lead to premature aging and skin cancer.
Hyperpigmentation
A term used to describe areas of uneven pigmentation in skin, which can occur anywhere on the body.
Pregnancy/Hormones
A natural increase in melanin can cause darkened skin, especially on the face.

  • A daily routine of
    targeted ingredients
    can help significantly
    improve melasma and
    hyperpigmentation.

What do dermatologists recommend for hyperpigmentation?

The first and foremost is sunscreen. Physical sunscreens with zinc and or titanium
are paramount in preventing the pigmentation from getting worse. Tinted
sunscreens also contain iron oxide which provides additional benefit.

Treatment for pigmentation is one of the biggest markets in skincare. Lasers and chemical peels are often employed for more serious cases of hyperpigmentation. At home
prescriptions are typically made by compounding pharmacies and include various permutations of the Kligman Formula (a cream with combinations of hydroquinone,
a steroid and a retinoid). While often effective, this combination can have
irritation and side effects including a permanent type of pigmentation called
ochronosis when used too long. Oral tranexamic acid is effective for severe cases of melasma but should always be done under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist who can discuss the risks.

Better options for hyperpigmentation are the following topicals, in addition to daily sunscreen use:

• Azelaic Acid – Known for its ability to calm
inflammation and gently reduce excess pigment without irritating the skin.

• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) – Helps even skin tone by minimizing pigment transfer while strengthening the skin barrier.

• Vitamin C and retinoids – also common,
though they can be sensitizing for some skin types.

• Dermatologists also recommend oral supplements with polypodium, alpha lipoic acid and various other vitamins to help with melasma.



WhyHydroquinone is NOT recommended?

Hydroquinone has long been used to treat stubborn hyperpigmentation – but it comes with important considerations. While effective for some, it can cause irritation, rebound pigmentation, and in rare cases, long-term skin damage like ochronosis (a near permanent blue black pigmentation). This is more likely to occur in preparations over 4% hydroquinone used for long periods of time. Hydroquinone is also melanotoxic – meaning in addition to reducing the pigment produced it actually kills the pigment producing cells themselves. This melanotoxicity is part of what makes hydroquinone effective in the short term. However, it also raises safety concerns with long-term use, especially among people with darker skin tones who are at increased risk for rebound hyperpigmentation or exogenous ochronosis (a bluish-black skin discoloration). For this reason, many dermatologists prefer non-toxic alternatives – like azelaic acid, which inhibits tyrosinase without killing melanocytes, offering a safer, long-term approach to managing pigmentation.

A variant of hydroquinone, monobenzyl ether of hydroquinone, is actually used to chemically induce vitiligo and kill all of the pigment cells in some patients with extreme disease who want all of their skin the same color.

That’s why many skincare experts and dermatologists now recommend safer, long-term solutions that are not melanotoxic – like azelaic acid and niacinamide – for fading discoloration. These ingredients offer gentle, sustained results with less risk and are suitable for a wider range of skin tones and sensitivities.

What does skin hyperpigmentation look like?

Hyperpigmentation is caused by an increase in melanin in the skin. Hyperpigmentation can look like patches of your skin appearing darker than the surrounding skin. This can appear as age spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

What causes hyperpigmentation?

The cause of hyperpigmentation depends on the type. Some include genetics, hormone changes, melasma, medications, medical conditions like Addison’s disease and sun damage. A doctor or dermatologist can typically identify the type and cause of hyperpigmentation.

Are there different types of hyperpigmentation?

There are many different types of hyperpigmentation. The most common are melasma, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Can hyperpigmentation be prevented?

It is not always possible to prevent hyperpigmentation or stop it from becoming more noticeable, but there are some ways to reduce the risk. You can protect your skin by using sunscreen with SPF 30 or above,
avoiding picking skin after an injury, taking recommended vitamins, and using
dermatologist-recommended skincare products like niacinamide, vitamin C and
azelaic acid.
