Depigmentation
Pigmentation is a condition that causes dark spots on your skin. There are different kinds of pigmentation. These include superficial pigmentation, which can be caused by mild sun tan and sun damage, frictional pigmentation caused by constant rubbing, and deep pigmentation, which is difficult to treat, like melasma, deep sun tan, and hyperpigmentation.
Ideal candidate for treatments to reduce pigmentation
To be an ideal candidate for these treatments, you will need to meet certain conditions. Firstly, you must be in good physical condition. Some of the procedures to treat pigmentation require you to be healthy so that you can recover well after the treatment. Ideal candidates should meet the following criteria:

- They should be non-smokers, as this yields better results.
- They should have minimal sun exposure.
- They must follow a good skincare routine.
- They should not have any active skin conditions, like a viral skin infection.
