Delhi's combination of intense sun and pollution makes pigmentation one of the most common skin concerns we see — here's how to understand and treat it properly.
Common Causes of Pigmentation
Sun exposure, hormonal changes, post-inflammatory marks from acne, and pollution-related oxidative stress are among the most common triggers for pigmentation in Delhi residents.
Types of Pigmentation to Identify
- Sun spots and tanning-related pigmentation
- Melasma, often linked to hormonal changes
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from acne or injury
- Age-related pigmentation
Treatment Options Available
Depending on the type and depth of pigmentation, options range from topical brightening actives and chemical peels to more targeted treatments like carbon laser facials — a proper diagnosis determines what will actually work.
Preventing Pigmentation From Worsening
Daily SPF application, avoiding peak sun hours, and treating acne promptly to prevent post-inflammatory marks are the three most effective prevention habits for Delhi's climate.
