What is Hyperpigmentation?

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition in which excess melanin forms patches of darker skin. It can appear as sunspots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), or age spots. While not medically harmful, it can affect skin tone and overall appearance.


What Causes Hyperpigmentation?

Common triggers include:

  • Sun exposure
  • Acne and inflammation
  • Hormonal changes (e.g. pregnancy, birth control)
  • Skin injuries or irritation
  • Certain medications or cosmetic procedures


What Treatments Are Available at Kleam Clinic Hongdae?

We offer a wide range of customized options to treat hyperpigmentation, including:

  • Laser Toning (Q-switched Nd:YAG) – Targets melanin gently, ideal for melasma and PIH
  • PICO Laser – Breaks pigment into smaller particles for faster clearance
  • Fraxel Laser – Resurfaces skin while fading deep pigment and improving texture
  • Chemical Peels – Exfoliate and lighten discoloration over time
  • Exosome Therapy – Calms inflammation and promotes even skin regeneration
  • Topical prescription creams – Such as hydroquinone, retinoids, or azelaic acid


Are These Treatments Safe for All Skin Types?

Yes—our dermatologists carefully select the safest modality based on your skin tone, sensitivity, and pigmentation type. We prioritize treatments that minimize risk of rebound pigmentation, especially for Asian and darker skin types.


How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Depending on severity, most patients require 3–6 sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments and sun protection are key for lasting results.


When Will I See Results?

Many patients notice improvement in tone and clarity within 2–4 weeks, with continued fading over time. Results vary based on pigment depth and treatment method.


Is There Any Downtime?

Downtime depends on the treatment. Laser toning and PICO have little to no downtime, while Fraxel and deeper peels may involve 2–5 days of redness or flaking.


Hyperpigmentation vs. Melasma – What’s the Difference?

Melasma is a type of hyperpigmentation typically triggered by hormones and worsened by UV exposure. It appears as symmetrical patches on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip, and often requires gentler, long-term treatment strategies.
