Pigmentation Abnormalities

Skin pigmentation abnormalities—hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, or uneven tone—can significantly impact self-confidence and quality of life. We offer customized treatment options when conventional pigment-correcting products fail to deliver results or cause irritation.

Pigmentation disorders range from melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation to vitiligo and other depigmenting conditions. Our compounding pharmacists can create personalized formulations that target your specific pigmentation concerns with ingredient combinations and strengths not available in mass-produced products.

We can compound specialized preparations that combine multiple active ingredients at optimal concentrations to address various aspects of melanin production and distribution. For stubborn cases that haven’t responded to standard treatments, we can formulate medications with enhanced penetration capabilities to reach deeper skin layers where pigment cells reside.

Here is how we can help:

For patients who experience irritation with standard depigmenting creams, we can create gentler formulations that maintain efficacy while reducing side effects. Our pharmacists can also develop unique delivery systems that enhance penetration while minimizing surface irritation.

When off-the-shelf products haven’t yielded results, our prescribing pharmacists can help, or we work closely with your dermatologist, physician or nurse practitioner to develop innovative approaches that may include novel brightening ingredients, stabilized vitamin C derivatives, or specialized peptides that regulate melanin production pathways.
