Discoloration (or hyperpigmentation) is a condition of the skin that causes the darkening of certain areas. Primarily caused by the overproduction of ‘melanin’ (a skin pigment), skin discoloration can have a variety of causes. For example, it can be a result of excessive exposure to UV sun rays, hormones, skin injuries, medication and acne. The most common characterization is the appearance of darker or lighter spots and freckles around the forehead, cheeks, nose, upper lip and chin. At MSH Clinic, we treat discoloration with the knowledge and expertise of Dr Margarita Vergolia, to combine treatments and utilize modern tools of aesthetic dermatology to achieve effective results.
Dr Margarita Vergolia suggests a comprehensive method to identify the hyperpigmentation issues of the skin using VISIA, the most advanced medical-grade machine for skin analysis. VISIA imaging complexion analysis by Canfield Scientific System works in the simplest, yet most reliable way, providing an in-depth analysis of the skin. The results of the skin analysis are obtained immediately and are stored to build a personal dermatology history file.
Canfield Scientific System Visia imaging system captures multispectral digital photos of the face and provides an in-depth analysis of the skin’s surface and subsurface. It visually displays wrinkles, brown spots, areas of redness, pores, texture, porphyrins and UV exposure. The patient’s skin history is recorded with VISIA, along with valuable information which allows Dr Margarita Vergolia to prepare a personalized treatment plan.
Dr Margarita Vergolia proposes and builds a personalized treatment plan that includes various medical-grade tested treatments used to effectively combat discoloration. Using her experience and clinical scientific knowledge of skin and skin problems, she is able to treat ailments from mild to severe. The proposed treatments at MSH Clinic, combined with a personalized dermatological plan, strive to treat discoloration of the skin and achieve an even skintone.

A favourite among patients for many years, the chemical peel is one of the most popular non-invasive transformative treatments. Chemical peels use chemical acid solutions for total skin regeneration. The peeling process involves the removal of accumulated dead skin cells from the surface layers of the skin, to reveal a healthy, youthful complexion. At MSH Clinic, we choose the ideal combination of chemical acids to specifically target the source of discoloration.
For the proper treatment of discoloration, an appropriate skincare routine will help you keep your skin healthy and prevent further coloring of the skin. The most suitable products are carefully selected by Dr Margarita Vergolia to further improve and maximize results.
