Pigmented Spot
Pigmented spots are a common aesthetic concern that worries many people. They come in different types, such as brown skin spots, birthmarks, and age spots.
These spots can appear in anyone, at different stages of life, and for various reasons. Victoria Park Medispa offers a range of treatments, always prioritizing the least invasive practices.
What is a pigmented spot?
A pigmented spot is a form of irregular and dark pigmentation, appearing as a flat or raised spot, and located on areas most exposed to the sun.
It affects a wide range of people, regardless of age or ethnic origin, and its frequency varies depending on several factors (sun exposure, genetic predispositions, and hormonal changes).
It can affect self-esteem and lead people to conceal it with clothing, accessories, and products. To effectively reduce their appearance and improve well-being, patients suffering from the appearance of their pigmented spots can consult the professionals at Victoria Park Medispa.
Different types of skin spots
A pigmented spot on the face, a skin pigmented spot, or a pigmented spot on a scar can be treated using various procedures and technologies.
With its team of aesthetic surgeons, equipped with advanced technologies, Victoria Park Medispa is able to treat this condition, whether it is a sun-induced pigmented spot or a red pigmented spot.
Causes of pigmented spots
These spots can be triggered by various factors, including hormonal changes such as pregnancy or menopause, skin trauma such as acne scars or injuries, genetic predispositions, as well as excessive sun exposure without adequate protection. Hormonal fluctuations can increase melanin production, leading to intensified skin pigmentation. Similarly, sun damage can stimulate melanin production, contributing to the appearance of pigmented spots. Those most likely to be affected include individuals with fair skin, as well as those with a family history of pigmented spots or genetic predispositions to hyperpigmentation. Over time, this skin condition can worsen with continued sun exposure and skin aging. However, regardless of the cause, pigmented spots are an aesthetic condition that can be treated at Victoria Park Medispa.

Choosing the right treatment for pigmented spots
The treatments offered at Victoria Park Medispa all aim to reduce excessive skin pigmentation and restore a more even and radiant appearance. Among the non-invasive options are specific medicated products formulated to reduce pigmented spots and promote cell renewal, as well as Microneedling DP4, which stimulates collagen and elastin production to improve skin texture.
The treatments available at the aesthetic clinic also include chemical peels, which involve chemical solutions to exfoliate the upper layers of the skin. There are also laser treatments such as Forever Young BBL, or the LUMECCA IPL photorejuvenation treatment, which uses intense pulsed light to selectively target skin imperfections. Each treatment is personalized according to the individual needs of the patient (age, severity of the condition, skin sensitivity, and budget). The expected results vary depending on the chosen treatment, but patients can generally expect a significant improvement in skin pigmentation.

Tips before and after laser treatment for pigmented spots
A preliminary consultation with a medical-aesthetic health professional at Victoria Park Medispa must take place, during which the skin will be assessed and the suitability for the right treatment determined. During this consultation, the patient’s expectations and information about the most appropriate treatment will be discussed. If the choice is laser treatment for pigmented spots, the patient will need to follow specific instructions (stopping photosensitizing medications, sun exposure, etc.).
Regarding the treatment itself, a laser selectively targets the pigments of the spot to destroy excess pigmented cells. The procedure, quick and relatively painless, may be accompanied by a slight tingling sensation, skin irritation, redness, or swelling in the following days. It is crucial to follow post-treatment instructions (application of soothing creams, sun protection, etc.) for optimal results.
In summary
Pigmented spots can be caused by hormonal changes, scars, genetic predispositions, and especially excessive sun exposure without protection.
