Post Holiday Browns? Treating Sun Damage

If you are noticing brown patches of darker skin starting to spoil your complexion, you’re not alone. Pigmentation problems or ‘hyperpigmentation’ are a common response to sun damage – and most of us have enjoyed quite a lot more sun this summer than in previous years, thanks to the glorious weather.

Patchy pigmentation tends to become more noticeable as a tan starts to fade, providing a greater contrast between the normal, paler skin and the problem area which has darker pigmentation. 

As we move towards autumn, this is a really important time to review your skin and get back on top of any issues that have arisen over the warmer months and holiday period.

Sun damage is the number one cause of signs of ageing with symptoms including premature lines/wrinkles, poor texture/complexion and pigmentation problems. 

Pigmentation problems can be particularly difficult to treat. While lines and wrinkles can be very quickly and easily improved with cosmetic injections (i.e. BOTOX® wrinkle relaxing injections or dermal fillers for deeper lines); there is no such quick and effective option for pigmentation. 

However, Dr Barbara Kubicka at Clinicbe® based in London has particular expertise in treating pigmentation problems including melasma, hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation – even with skin of colour. She is able to recommend the best route from a selection of options available at her skin clinic to help the skin recover a more even skin tone.

Pigmentation Treatment Options

Cosmeceutical Skincare Regime

An good skincare regime provides the skin with daily care. Choosing individually tailored cosmeceutical products adds in an additional dimension with active ingredients chosen to address the particular concerns. Results build up with usage and can improve skin texture, tone, youthfulness, radiance, complexion and pigmentation. 

It is important to include daily sun protection in the skincare regime, in order to allow the skin to recover a more even skin tone without further stimulation of the pigment and prevent further sun damage. 

Exquisite Facial – Ultimate Sun Damage Treatment

Clinicbe’s exclusive Exquisite Facial is a careful combination treatment which was designed by Dr Barbar Kubicka to tackle sun damage for clearer, brighter, more youthful skin. Treatment combines a gentle yet effective exfoliating chemical peel with IPL treatment to improve a variety of skin problems for clearer, fresher and more radiant skin.

These treatments are also available on their own:

• Chemical peel
• IPL treatment (Intense Pulsed Light)

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is a favourite at Clinicbe®. Treatment involves delivering a series of tiny injections to stimulate the skin’s healing process (natural response to injections) as well as hydrating, volumising or stimulating the skin through whatever carefully selected solution is delivered. An extraordinarily simple concept, yet a very effective and versatile treatment.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a treatment which stimulates the skin’s own recovery processes through a series of tiny pin pricks. It can improve pigmentation as well as lines and skin texture and results can be enhanced through immediate application of a suitable serum. Clinicbe® offers a range of microneedling procedures:

• Dermastamp is an automated stamping device 
• Dermapen features an  even more finely targeted ‘pen’ for tackling very specific areas
