Redness and hyperpigmentation may make your skin tone appear uneven.

You may experience one or both of these concerns that can make you feel less confident.

If you’re seeking a more even tone and radiant complexion, we may be able to help.

What causes uneven skin tone?

Facial redness can be caused by multiple factors, such as too much sun exposure, anxiety, stress, hormonal fluctuations or consuming hot food and drinks. In some cases, skin conditions such as acne or rosacea can make your skin appear red, alongside other frustrating symptoms.

Hyperpigmentation is caused by increased melanin production. While melanin gives your skin its pigment, it can, on occasion, overproduce and cause an uneven skin tone.

There are three main forms which are triggered by different factors. These are:

  • Age Spots (also known as sun spots, solar lentigines and liver spots)
    Look like large freckles and are more common in older people who’ve had increased sun exposure.
  • Melasma (also known as chloasma or the ‘mask of pregnancy’)
    Typically activated by hormonal changes (particularly pregnancy, birth control pills and HRT), melasma presents as dark patches that are more spread out across the forehead, upper lip, cheeks, nose and chin.
  • Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
    Usually found where the skin has previously been damaged or inflamed (acne is a common cause), leaving it darkened after the area has healed.

Identifying the cause of your uneven skin tone is the first step to managing it correctly. That’s why we dedicate plenty of time to a detailed consultation that will explore your medical and lifestyle history before recommending an appropriate treatment plan.
