Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition that can affect anyone, characterised by darkened areas of skin due to excess melanin production. Most of us will have some form of hyperpigmentation.

Hyperpigmentation occurs when certain areas of the skin become darker than the surrounding skin due to an increase in melanin, the pigment responsible for skin colour. This condition can manifest as brown, black, grey, red or pink spots and is generally harmless.

Our Triphala Pigmentation Corrector contains a proprietary blend of Triphala and 12 Brighteners help to suppress and balance skin melanin from getting overstimulated by light, heat, skin irritation etc. Vitamin C rich Amla inhibits tyrosinase activity as Triphala pigmentation Corrector address the multiple modalities to hyperpigmentation.

Sometimes referred to as the pregnancy mask, it is irregular patches of hyperpigmentation usually caused by triggers such as genetics, sun exposure, hormones and some medications (genetic predisposition is a major factor in the development of melasma). There are also different types of melasma: epidermal, dermal and mixed, with dermal melasma being the most difficult to treat.

Dark marks left behind on the skin (or the overproduction of melanin in the skin) as a default response to injury (burns, cuts, scratching and picking the skin) or inflammatory skin disorders (eczema, acne) and can also be caused or further darkened by sun exposure and some medications.

Usually smaller, flat, dark brown, round or oval spots and are the results of cumulative sun damage. For these reasons, they mostly appear on parts of the body that are frequently exposed such as the hands, face and arms. They are also more common in older skins due to photoageing and irregularities in pigment production or deposition.
