Everyone looks better with a glow, but it comes

with a cost. Spending extended amounts of time

in the sun (or in a tanning bed) is dangerous.

Take a sunburn, for example. It takes time for

melanocytes to produce melanin and protect the

skin from the sun's harmful rays. When

melanocytes can not work quickly enough to

create a tan, the UV rays from the sun can burn

the skin and leave it looking pink or bright red.

Sun damage also accumulates over time, which

can lead to skin cancer. The lighter your skin,

the greater your risk of developing skin cancer.

So make sure that you see a dermatologist

regularly for a skin exam.

Since a majority of people spend many years

in the sun’s rays, the melanocytes reset

themselves to becoming more reactive.

Excessive sunlight exposure can typically

cause these melanocytes to multiply which

eventually start producing an uneven

distribution of melanocytes that are active.

Also skin Pigmentation, sunspots, age spots

(liver spots), people with liver dysfunction

may also form liver spots as it generally

relates to cellular damage via free radicals

liver is largely responsible for resolving

the build up of free radicals. Particularly on

the face can be distressing and can

affect your confidence. Laser is effective in

removing superficial brown blemishes

and flat pigmented spots.

Melanocytes produce melanin, which gets deposited into the epidermal cells. There are

two different types of melanin that melanocytes produce: eumelanin, which is dark

brown in color, and phaeomelanin, which can have a red or yellow tint.

Melanin production is regulated by a peptide

hormone that is located in the pituitary gland and

known as the melanocyte- stimulating hormone.

Pituitary tumors and spiked estrogen levels that occur during pregnancy cause the pituitary gland

to produce more of this hormone.

When there is a high concentration of the

production of melanin, freckle-like spots and

patches could start appearing on the surface

of the skin especially the face. Frequent

exposure to UV rays caused from the sun

could cause an inflammatory response on

the face and when the response is severe,

it could result in a sunburn. That means

when you spend more time in sunlight,

you have a larger risk for developing

hyperpigmentation on the face.

Pigmented lesions are dark in color because

melanin is abnormally concentrated in one area of

the skin. High concentrations of melanin can be due

to various factors, but most occur with age or as a

result of overexposure to the sun. Brown spots

commonly appear in sun exposed areas like the

tops of the forehead and face.

As sun exposure plays a significant role in the

development of liver spots, it is advisable to

avoid excessive exposure to the sun and becoming

sunburnt. Cover up when outside and use a good

quality non toxic free radical protective. Daily use

of a good sunscreen to minimize sun-damage,

and to protect your skin following treatment is

recommended.

Our skin grows many different types of benign and

malignant tumours, commonly called "moles".

Compound moles have cells in the dermis and

epidermis. Their colour varies from normal skin colour

through to almost black. They may have an irregular

pigment pattern with black spots and dark hairs. On

the face, these can cause self-consciousness, with

the hair follicles also prone to infection. Women may

pluck the hairs, but men risk cutting the top off the

moles during shaving.

Most moles are not dangerous and appear during the

early parts of a person's life, before the age of 30,

some moles change over time, while others remain

the same. Moles with unusual colors or shapes have

a greater chance of developing into a melanoma,

which is a type of skin cancer.

Moles growing everywhere on your body,

facial, head, arms and legs, even covert

of the body.

Intradermal moles sit in the dermis only

and tend to be soft and fleshy. They can

be raised up to 5mm, from skin colour to

dark brown. Dysplastic moles look like

compound moles, but with a more

irregular pigment and possibly a more

irregular edge. They may also be larger.

Because of their irregular pigmentation

and edges, they can look like melanomas,

so many of these are excised and

examined for safety to ensure they

do not harbour any melanoma.

The moles growing different colour with

black, brown and gray.

Moles come in two types: congenital mole

and dysplastic mole. Congenital moles are

present from birth and happen in about one

percent of the population. These are

sometimes more likely to turn into

melanoma than moles that appear later.

Dysplastic moles are larger than the mean

and have an anomalous, or irregular, shape

and uneven color and borders.

The moles have had the pigment around

the edges destroyed by the body’s immune

system leaving a pale halo around a dark

centre. These uncommon moles are benign

and tend to occur in adolescents. moles

have a black colour, which is quite dense

and can be confused with melanoma, so

are often removed as a precaution.

The skin cells that create pigmentation

create the dark growths and lesions called

moles, new growths that appear in a variety

of sizes ranging from pin-sized to an inch

or more in diameter.

Most people have moles and many are

hereditary. Moles that change size and

color may indicate cancer or other skin

diseases and should be removed. Most

moles cause cosmetic concerns however

and can be safely to removed through a

variety of cosmetic laser techniques,

including laser Therapy.

Most moles occur when a group of cells

called melanocytes grow together in a

cluster instead of being spread out

across the skin, according to

melanocytes are the cells responsible

for skin pigment, which is why they

About 50% of malignant melanomas begin

in existing moles. Pigmented solar

keratoses may have a crusty surface, so

they usually appear different to moles,

but some can look like melanomas and

may be removed by Laser Treatment.

If you have many abnormal moles, you

should have an annual skin check or

changes in size, shape and colour can be

detected. Any new skin growth or changing

mole needs to be checked by your GP, who

may recommend you to have a Laser

removal treatment, to get the best possible

result.

Laser Skin revitalization is an advanced

treatment for sun damage and age spots.

It delivers visible results faster than you

have ever dreamed. It is a powerful

treatment alternative to Laser to peels off.

Skin revitalization treats age spots and

sun damage by using an optimized laser

light device to deliver laser light energy to

your skin which is selectively absorbed

by the unwanted pigment and then

cleared away.

Laser Skin revitalization is a non surgical

approach for treating age spots and sun

damage, using powerful laser based

technology to target unwanted pigment

without harming the surrounding skin. In

just a few simple treatment sessions,

pigment appears laser lighter and your

skin looks clearer and younger.

Age spots, which are also known as

hyperpigmentation or age spots, are common

and grow increasingly common with age. They

can be frustrating to deal with as they seemingly

appear out of nowhere, and they can also be a

somewhat embarrassing indicator of age.

Age spots develop fundamentally from cellular

damage. Several factors trigger their production

on the surface of the skin.

Many people have a hereditary predisposition

to develop age spots and their body will

readily create the appearance of brown spots

in these cases regular maintenance with

sophisticated Laser technology that removes

their appearance may be required.

The other main factors that contribute to the

development of this condition is exposure to the

sun.

Laser energy from is very well absorbed by cells

containing excessive concentrations of pigment

stimulating your body to eliminate the unwanted

excessive pigment while having little or no effect

on normal skin color.

The majority of age spots show up

during middle of age a person's from

40 years old, having anywhere between

10 and 40 spots as an adult is normal.

Time brings changes to age spots, as

colors shift and hairs sometimes

appear. Some vanish altogether, while

others always remain the same. Most

moles do not present a danger.

However, those with a greater likelihood

of cancer look different than those

around them or show up after the age of

30.

The size and shape of a mole is

important when deciding if laser

surgery is the best method to remove

the skin lesion. laser treatments

are best suited for removing flat moles

that do not protrude above the

surface of the skin. These moles

typically have been present from birth

and are usually brown or black.

Warts are ey common, especially in children and young adults. They are actually benign tumors that are location only in the top of the skin, the epidermis. Warts can look different, depending on their location.

Warts can occur anywhere on the body, but they are seen most often on the finger, the backs of the hands, the knees, and the elbows. These are sites that most often get breaks in the skin like cuts of abrasions that expose

the lower layers of the epidermis to the human papillomavirus(HPV). Because the virus stays only in the epidermis and does not penetrate into the dermis where the blood vessels are located, often the immune system does

not even know the wart is there. This is one of the reasons that it can be difficult to get rid of a wart.

This is a picture of genital warts on a woman's arm and finger, warts in this area can look different depending on the type of skin they are growing in. These warts on the edge of the moist skin look almost white.

Finally the warts on the regular, dry skin look a little more like typical warts that you should see o other parts of the body, but they stick out more. Since warts in the genital area can look different from other skin

warts, if you notice any persistent bumps in your genital area, you should have a doctor take a look to see what they are.

I The medical term for warts in the genital area is condylomate acuminata. These warts look different from warts that occur on other parts of the body. They tend to be softer than skin warts and they can look more like skin tage, as seen in this picture.

Warts on the skin grow in cylindrical projections and often these projections fuse together to give the wart a flat surface. warts that grow in certain areas and in thin skin av the cylindrical projections, but they do not fuse. In this picture of a wart on the scalp, you can see numerous projections from the tiny ones at the base to the large ones on top,

Contrary to popular belief, warts do not have roots. They only grow in the top layer of skin, the epidermis. When they grow, they can displace the second layer of skin, the

dermis, but they do not grow into the dermis. The underside of a wart is actually smooth.

Warts normally grow out of the skin in cylindrical columns. These columns do not fuse when the columns fuse and are packed tightly together giving the surface the typical

mosaic pattern. Black dots can sometimes be seen in a wart. These are actually blood vessels that have grown rapidly and irregularly into the wart and have clotted off or thrombosed.

They are not seeds of the wart as one myth has statted.

Wart can occur in people of all ages but occur most commonly in children and young adults. They spread by direct contact, simply by touching the wart. Warts normally resolve spontaneously but the time

it takes for this resolution is variable.

Most warts resolve within weeks or months even without treatment, but some may take many years or decades. It appears that a person's susceptibility to warts ad the time it takes for them to go away

is related to the individual's immune system. People who have immune-related diseases such as AIDS and Iymphoma or those who are receiving chemotherapy tend to have more warts that last longer.
