There are several causes of facial pigmentation and the diagnosis determines the best treatment.
All facial pigmentation is caused from increased amounts of melanin deposited in the skin, however the treatment depends on the underlying cause and depth in the skin.
Common causes of facial pigmentation.
1. Sun damage
Most areas of Australia have high UV levels and the excessive exsposure results in abnormal facial pigmentation as well as premature aging with wrinkles and surface capillaries.
Pigmentation that results from sun damage: freckles, liver spots, age spots and sun spots.
2. Hormonal
All hormal pigmentation results from a combination of increased oestrogen and sun exsposure.
Melasma or chloasma caused by pregnancy or the pill has a maplike appearance common on the upper lip, cheeks and forehead.
Treatment of facial pigmentation depends on the cause.
Pigmentation that results from sundamage responds well to intense pulsed light treatment. In the form of photorejuvenation you will expect not only decreased pigmentation but also removal of facial capillaries and improved skin health. Treatment of melasma responds better to skin lightening treatments or fractional laser treatments.
It is important that the cause of your facial pigmentation is correctly diagnosed so an appropriate treatment can be provided and to distinguish pigmentation from early melanoma.

Pigmentation Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) effectively removes most types of skin pigmentation safely.
It is important to have skin pigmentation and pigmented spots properly diagnosed to know what treatment option is the best and safest for your skin type. Intense pulsed light therapy (IPL, S IPL) is a relatively new and versatile laser like treatment that removes most skin pigmentation gently.

1. Freckles
Freckles are very responsive to the intense pulsed light treatments (IPL) and some types of lasers. Most people get excellent results with removal of freckles no matter what part of the body. Intense pulsed light has the advantage: it does not burn the skin, so it is non invasive, but progressively lightens unwanted freckles.
2. Sunspots, liver spots and age spots (Solar lentigos)
All of these terms refer to abnormal pigmentation that results from sun damage. They are commonly accompanied by premature aging of the skin with wrinkles and broken capillaries.
The best treatment for these pigmentation spots is pulsed light treatments in the form of photorejuvenation. Photorejuvenation not only removes unwanted pigmentation but at the same time: stimulates collagen and rejuvenates skin health, decreases wrinkles AND removes surface capillaries.
