Understanding Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a common dermatological condition characterized by discoloration at the site of healed lesions or inflammation. This condition can manifest as light brown, red, or black spots and may worsen with sun exposure or certain medications, such as tetracycline.
Underlying Conditions Leading to PIH Include:
- Acne
- Allergic Reactions
- Skin Infections
- Mechanical Injuries
- Reactions to Medications
- Burns
- Dermatitis
- Lichen Planus
Who is Affected by Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation?
PIH is prevalent among individuals with darker skin tones, but it can affect anyone. It's notably more persistent in those with conditions exacerbated by sun exposure, such as phytophotodermatitis and lichenoid dermatoses.
Causes of Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation
The root cause of PIH is inflammation, which stimulates excessive melanin production in areas where the skin has been damaged. This can result in persistent discoloration that remains long after the original condition has healed.
Advanced Treatment Options at Our NYC Center
At the Park Avenue Non-Surgical Rejuvenation Center, we offer a range of cutting-edge treatments designed to address hyperpigmentation effectively and safely:
- Hydroquinone: A powerful skin-lightening agent that inhibits melanin production.
- Tretinoin Cream: Accelerates skin cell turnover and reduces pigmentation.
- Corticosteroid Creams: Reduce inflammation and pigmentation.
- Glycolic Acid Peels: Exfoliate the skin and improve pigmentation.
- Azelaic Acid: A multifaceted treatment that reduces pigmentation and improves skin texture.
In addition to these treatments, we emphasize the importance of using a broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent further darkening and protect the skin from harmful UV rays. Our comprehensive approach also includes cosmetic solutions to minimize the appearance of hyperpigmented areas while awaiting the effects of medical treatments.
