Pigmentation Disorders Beyond the Face: Neck, Arms, and Body Solutions
Pigmentation disorders are not just limited to the face; they frequently affect the neck, arms, chest, and other body areas, impacting confidence for many in Chennai. Genesis Dermatology Hospital provides advanced diagnosis and treatments for body pigmentation, using proven protocols and the latest technology suited for Indian skin.
Common Causes of Body Pigmentation
Sun exposure, friction from clothing, hormonal changes, and genetic factors contribute to dark patches, pigmentation, and uneven tone on the body. Areas like the neck, elbows, knees, and underarms are particularly prone.
Advanced Treatment Options
Genesis offers laser toning, Q-switch and Nd:YAG laser therapy, and chemical peels to target deep hyperpigmentation and tan lines. Personalised topical creams and serums are also prescribed to fade pigment and even out skin tone gently. Experienced dermatologists assess severity and skin type before recommending a customised plan.
What to Expect During Treatment
A step-by-step approach includes consultation, skin assessment, patch testing, and procedure sessions spaced at safe intervals. Most treatments have minimal downtime, with only mild redness or tingling. Aftercare includes sun protection and moisturisation to maintain results.
Prevention and Long-Term Care
Genesis experts emphasise preventive strategies like regular sunscreen use, gentle exfoliation, and avoiding irritants to reduce recurrence. Education about triggers and healthy lifestyle tweaks help keep skin radiant all over the body.
