Science-Led Skincare Targeting Hyperpigmentation for Radiant, Even Skin

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern that can affect all skin types. It can be difficult to manage and requires expert care. Hyperpigmentation refers to spots and patches of skin that are darker than the surrounding areas. This occurs when the skin overproduces melanin—the pigment that gives skin its colour. The excess pigment clusters in the outermost layer of the skin (epidermis) and the layer below (dermis) forming patches or dark spots.

Exposure to UV light exacerbates all types of hyperpigmentation, making dark spots more prominent and the complexion more uneven.
