Understanding Pigmentation

Before diving into the treatments, it’s crucial to understand what pigmentation is and how it occurs. Pigmentation refers to the colour of our skin, which is determined by the presence of a pigment called melanin. When melanin production becomes irregular or excessive, it can lead to dark spots or patches on the skin. Several factors contribute to pigmentation issues, including genetics, hormonal changes, sun exposure, and certain medical conditions.

SkinBase Microdermabrasion

SkinBase microdermabrasion is a non-invasive and gentle exfoliation treatment designed to improve the texture and appearance of the skin. By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, microdermabrasion stimulates cell renewal, helping to combat pigmentation irregularities. A course of treatments helps to bring these pigmented layers to the surface sloughing them away to reveal the new, fresh skin beneath.

Key Benefits of SkinBase Microdermabrasion

  1. Reduction of Pigmentation: Microdermabrasion can significantly lighten the appearance of pigmentation irregularities, such as age spots and sunspots, revealing a more even-toned complexion.
  2. Smoother Skin Texture: The exfoliation process smooths out rough patches, fine lines, and acne scars, providing a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
  3. Enhanced Collagen Production: Microdermabrasion stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving the overall elasticity and firmness of the skin.
  4. Minimise Pore Size: Regular treatments can help reduce the size of enlarged pores, leading to a refined and more youthful-looking complexion.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Treatment:

SkinBase IPL can be utilised to carry out photorejuvenation, a popular and effective treatment for various skin concerns, including to combat pigmentation issues. This non-invasive procedure utilizes broad-spectrum light pulses to target and breakdown excess melanin, gradually fading dark spots and pigmentation irregularities.

Key Benefits of IPL Treatment:

  1. Targeted Pigmentation Correction: IPL emits specific wavelengths of light that target melanin pigments, effectively reducing the appearance of sunspots, age spots, and other pigmentation concerns.
  2. Even Skin Tone: The treatment helps promote a more uniform skin tone by removing the discolouration of pigmentation
  3. Collagen Stimulation: IPL treatment also stimulates collagen production, which improves skin texture, reduces fine lines, and enhances overall skin quality.
  4. Minimal Downtime: IPL is a non-surgical and non-ablative procedure, meaning it does not damage the skin’s surface. Consequently, it requires minimal downtime, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities soon after the treatment.

Testimonial: “JC was so low, suicidal at points. Sore, red, angry, his skin was awful, we had tried everything and doctors you name it. We reached out to Becky, who was wonderful. My son was quiet and withdrawn, lacked confidence and self esteem, and locked himself away from the world. Becky booked us in for a consultation to discuss different options of treatments and we decided the new hydro treatment would be the best option. We started the course and JC was nervous but Becky was great with him talking him through everything, step by step! As we went each time JC’s skin got better and better, but also the difference in him was huge, he was gaining confidence, shoulders back, head held high. We have watched his skin change from this red, aggressive, angry skin that was sore, acne was debilitating to him but now he is confident, holds his head up high and has even got his first job! We are so proud. When we met Becky I felt confident she would help us get his skin better and back on track but what has actually happened is skin looks amazing but to see our son gain confidence has been the biggest win! Teens often get pushed aside, put on string meds and told “it’s just your age” but this isn’t what they want to hear, but The SkinBase treatments Becky has done has changed his life! We cannot thank you enough Becky! JC is continuing with the treatments as it still gets the odd breakouts but the scarring is still improving week in week out. The hydro Facial is just amazing and we cannot recommend it enough and of course Becky and her passion for skin and helping people is wonderful!”
