Irregular pigmentation is commonly caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes or acne. Post-acne pigmentation, “age spots” or melasma can be troublesome skin concerns that are usually resistant to over-the-counter skin products. They can also get worse with time. A potent treatment plan managed by a skin specialist is the best way to ensure your pigmentation is not only reduced, but does not recur.
The STORY Pigmentation Programme uses a combination of peels and prescription strength products to suppress further pigment production. It also reduces irregular pigment patches present in the skin.
