Sun Damage – Pigmentation
Hyperpigmentation occurs when the skin produces more melanin which is the pigment that gives skin its colour. It affects people of all skin types. Some forms of hyperpigmentation, including melasma and sunspots, are more likely to affect areas of skin that face sun exposure, including the face, arms, and legs.

Angiomas
Angiomas are benign tumours derived from cells of the vascular, lymphatic vessel walls (endothelium) or derived from cells of the tissues surrounding these vessels. They are a frequent occurrence as people age but they might be an indicator of systemic problems such as liver disease.

Acne
Acne occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with dead skin cells and oil. It often causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples, and usually appears on the face, chest, upper back and shoulders. It is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages.

Aging & Wrinkles
Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process. As people get older, their skin gets drier, thinner and less elastic, resulting in less able to protect itself from damage. This leads to wrinkles, creases and lines on the skin.

Facial Veins
Broken blood vessels also called “spider veins”, occur when they are dilated or enlarged just beneath your skin’s surface, resulting in small, red lines that spread out into a web-shaped form. They are developed more commonly on the face and legs but they can develop anywhere on the body.

Rosacea is a skin condition that typically affects the face long-term, resulting in redness, pimples and swelling. It can also result in small and superficial dilated blood vessels. Often, the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin are mostly affected.

Skin Conditions
Scarring
When the skin gets damaged, your body naturally repairs the damage. The way your body repairs the damage depends on how deeply the injury penetrates your skin. To repair the damage that goes deep, your body makes a tissue that is thicker than your skin and this thicker tissue often becomes a scar.
