Many people develop pigmented skin over time, especially in the mid 40's or 50's. These red or brown spot skin blemishes are forms of hyperpigmentation – excess melanin in the skin. This can be caused by a number of factors including sun exposure, trauma, hormonal changes, and genetics.
These colored skin pigments are often difficult to cover up with aesthetic makeup over time and can be very distracting when you look in the mirror.
The pigment areas can often be removed or minimized greatly with just one laser treatment and in some cases two Sciton laser treatments.
