Join the Conversation: Understanding the causes and cures of Pigmentation

Join us on Wednesday 16th September at 10.30am in our next virtual coffee morning where Dr Sophie Shotter will be discussing the various causes of pigmentation and the tried-and-tested treatment options that she recommends.

Triggered by factors such as age, inflammation, sun damage, hormones and genetics, pigmentation is a highly common skincare struggle. As the nights draw in and we slowly ease into autumn, our summer tan begins to fade, and you may start to notice that some dark spots are left behind – this is the result of sun damage.

Pigmentation comes in many different forms including hyper, hypo and post-inflammatory pigmentation and melasma– identifying the type that you’re suffering with is the first step to finding a solution. Pigmentation is likely to be one of the most challenging skin issues to resolve on your own. Serums, peels and creams can help tremendously but the approach is different for every patient. As well as the kind of pigment you’re battling, the right protocol for you will ultimately depend on your skin tone and degree of sensitivity.

During our next virtual coffee morning, Dr Sophie Shotter will explore the various causes of pigmentation, looking at the role that factors such as the sun, hormones and genetics play. She will also share her knowledge and expertise to help you understand the treatment options that target pigmentation at its core and the steps to take to prevent further pigmentation issues in the future.

Science-based skincare combined with a deeper knowledge of your specific pigmentation issues is a powerful duo.  Whether you are already battling with pigmentation or would simply like to learn more about the steps you can take to encourage a healthy complexion all year round, this unique presentation will help guide you through the maze so you can make more informed choices about your skin health. It will encourage you to explore the options and learn about what’s right for you.

There will be plenty of time for a Q&A at the end of the presentation, where Dr Sophie Shotter will answer your live questions. We’d love to catch up with you, so please put the date in your diary and join us for a sparkling discussion and an excellent opportunity for us to come together and embrace healthy, youthful-looking skin both inside and out.
