Understanding Pigmentation: What Causes It and How Green Toning Laser Helps Clear It

What Is Pigmentation?

Pigmentation occurs when excess melanin (the pigment responsible for skin colour) is produced in certain areas of the skin.

This can appear as:

• Sun spots and age spots
• Freckles
• Post-acne marks
• Uneven skin tone or dark patches

Pigmentation often develops due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, acne and the natural ageing process.

 Common Causes of Pigmentation

Some of the most common triggers include:

• UV exposure from the sun
• Hormonal fluctuations (such as pregnancy or menopause)
• Acne and skin inflammation
• Genetics
• Ageing skin

Over time, pigment can become more stubborn and difficult to treat with skincare alone.

 How Green Toning Laser Targets Pigmentation

Green Toning Laser is a specialised laser treatment designed to target excess pigment and redness in the skin.

The laser energy:

• Targets pigmented areas in the skin
• Breaks the pigment into tiny particles
• Allows the body’s natural processes to gradually clear it away

As treatments progress, the skin appears clearer, brighter and more even in tone.

 Additional Skin Benefits

Along with reducing pigmentation, Green Toning Laser can also:

• Improve overall skin clarity
• Reduce redness
• Support smoother skin texture
• Enhance natural glow

Making it a great option for clients wanting comprehensive skin improvement.

 Why Autumn Is the Perfect Season for Pigmentation Treatments

Treating pigmentation during the cooler months helps minimise sun exposure, allowing the skin to heal safely and effectively after laser treatments.

This makes autumn an ideal time to start your pigmentation correction journey.
