✨ POST INFLAMMATORY HYPERPIGMENTATION (PIH) TREATMENT ✨

A middle-aged lady came to us with concern about dark pigmentation that developed after undergoing electrocautery treatment to remove skin tags and seborrhoeic keratosis.

Although the primary lesions were successfully removed, she developed post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) a common condition where the skin becomes darker after inflammation or procedures.

She sought consultation at Lagenda Medical Clinic, and after proper assessment, we started her on low-level laser toning treatment.

🗓 First visit to clinic : Nov 2025
📸 Latest update: March 2026
💡 Picture shows progress after 3 sessions, spaced 1 month apart.

Her management plan included:
✔️ Gentle low-level laser toning
✔️ Regular moisturizer to support skin barrier
✔️ Adequate daily sunscreen (very important!)

With consistent treatment and proper skincare, noticeable improvement can be achieved safely and gradually.

Every pigmentation case is different. Proper consultation is essential to determine the most suitable treatment according to your skin condition.

Your pillowcase in the bedroom may look clean, still smell fresh from fabric softener, and have no visible stains. But…

The truth is, the things that look clean are often the ones that quietly collect the most hidden dirt.

Many people wonder why they keep having sudden acne breakouts, or why they wake up every morning with a blocked nose and constant sneezing. They try switching to expensive skincare products and even take medication for sinus problems, but the real culprit may simply be the fabric that touches their face for about 8 hours every night.

Why can your pillowcase become “dirty” without you realizing it?

Accumulation of sweat and facial sebum.
Every night, our bodies release fine sweat and natural oils from the scalp and face. These oils can seep deep into the fibers of your pillowcase.

Build-up of dead skin cells.
Humans shed millions of dead skin cells every day. When we rub our face against the pillow, these cells are left behind and trapped there.

A playground for dust mites.
Microscopic dust mites love warm and humid environments, and they “feed” on our dead skin cells. Their waste is a major trigger for allergies, sinus problems, and even inflamed acne!

Simple prevention steps:
• Change your pillowcase at least once a week. Don’t wait until it smells musty or turns yellowish.
• Wash pillowcases using warm or hot water settings in the washing machine to effectively kill dust mites.
• Avoid sleeping with wet hair or an unwashed face after spending the whole day outside.

So, it may not be that your skincare isn’t working — perhaps it’s your “sleep surface” that needs a closer look.

Be honest — how many weeks do you usually go before changing your pillowcase at home?

Have you ever noticed someone using a “whitening cream” for just a few weeks, and suddenly their skin looks strangely smooth, dramatically brighter, but fine green veins start appearing on their cheeks? When asked about it, they reply, “It’s normal, my skin is just adapting.”

That may not be adaptation. It could be a warning sign that the skin is being damaged.

Illegal cosmetic products that claim to whiten skin quickly are sometimes mixed with banned substances such as mercury, and some may also contain strong steroids. Mercury can be harmful to the body, including risks to the kidneys and nervous system. Strong steroids can thin the skin, make small veins more visible, and cause the skin to become easily red, sensitive, and fragile.

Signs your body may be “bearing the burden” of harmful cosmetics:
• Skin becoming thinner with visible fine veins
• Face easily turns red, stings, or feels hot under sunlight
• Unusual acne that keeps appearing and disappearing, or rashes that develop easily
• Uneven patches, with skin looking fragile and peeling easily
• Feeling unwell, headaches, numbness, or unusual fatigue appearing after using the product

What you should do if you suspect a cosmetic product contains banned substances:
• Stop using it immediately
• Keep the product and take photos of the label
• See a doctor for evaluation, especially if symptoms are severe or if you are pregnant
• Avoid continuing products with no notification number, no clear ingredient list, or those that promise extremely fast whitening

Rapid whitening is not a gift. Sometimes it’s a sign that the skin is being slowly damaged.

Honestly, have you ever noticed fine green veins appearing on someone’s cheeks after they started using certain skincare products?

Sarung bantal di bilik tidur anda mungkin nampak bersih, masih berbau wangi pelembut fabrik, dan langsung tiada tompok kotor. Tapi...

Hakikat yang sebenar, benda yang nampak bersih inilah yang paling banyak kumpul kotoran tersembunyi.

Ramai yang stres kenapa jerawat asyik naik mendadak (breakout) atau bangun pagi hidung selalu tersumbat dan bersin-bersin. Puas tukar set penjagaan wajah (skincare) yang mahal-mahal dan makan ubat resdung, rupa-rupanya punca utama adalah kain yang bersentuh dengan muka kita 8 jam setiap malam.

Kenapa sarung bantal anda boleh jadi "kotor" secara senyap?

Terkumpulnya peluh dan sebum muka. Setiap malam, badan kita merembeskan peluh halus dan minyak semula jadi dari kulit kepala serta wajah. Minyak ini akan menyerap jauh ke dalam urat benang sarung bantal anda.

Lambakan sel kulit mati. Manusia menggugurkan jutaan sel kulit mati setiap hari. Apabila kita bergesel muka di atas bantal, sel-sel ini tertinggal dan terperangkap di situ.

Pesta hama (dust mites). Hama mikroskopik sangat sukakan persekitaran yang suam, lembap, dan mereka "makan" sel kulit mati kita. Najis hama inilah pencetus utama (trigger) kepada alahan, resdung, dan jerawat bernanah!

Langkah pencegahan yang sangat ringkas:
Tukar sarung bantal sekurang-kurangnya seminggu sekali. Jangan tunggu sampai ia berbau hapak atau berubah warna kekuningan.
Basuh sarung bantal menggunakan tetapan air suam atau panas pada mesin basuh untuk mematikan hama dengan berkesan.
Elakkan tidur dengan rambut yang basah atau muka yang belum dicuci selepas seharian di luar.

Jadi, bukan salah skincare anda tak berkesan, mungkin "tapak" tidur anda yang perlu diaudit semula.

Cuba jujur sikit, selalunya berapa minggu sekali anda akan tukar sarung bantal dekat rumah?

Anda perasan tak, ada orang guna “krim pemutih” beberapa minggu je, tiba-tiba muka nampak makin licin pelik, makin cerah mengejut, tapi urat hijau halus mula timbul dekat p**i. Bila ditegur, dia jawab, “Biasalah, tengah serasi.”

Itu bukan serasi. Itu boleh jadi amaran kulit sedang rosak.

Produk kosmetik haram yang kononnya boleh putih cepat kadang-kadang dicampur bahan terlarang seperti merkuri, dan ada juga yang dicampur steroid kuat. Merkuri berbahaya pada badan termasuk risiko pada buah pinggang dan sistem saraf. Steroid kuat p**a boleh menipiskan kulit, buat urat halus makin jelas, dan kulit jadi mudah merah serta sensitif.

Tanda badan anda mungkin sedang “menanggung” kosmetik berbahaya:
Kulit makin nipis dan urat halus jelas
Muka cepat merah, pedih, panas bila kena matahari
Jerawat pelik yang naik turun, atau ruam mudah jadi
Tompok jadi tidak sekata, kulit nampak rapuh dan mudah menggelupas
Badan rasa tak sedap, sakit kepala, kebas, atau cepat letih yang datang serentak selepas guna produk

Apa yang patut dibuat jika anda syak kosmetik ada bahan terlarang:
Berhenti guna serta-merta
Simpan produk dan ambil gambar label
Jumpa doktor untuk penilaian, terutama jika ada simptom teruk atau anda hamil
Elak sambung guna produk yang tiada nombor notifikasi, tiada senarai bahan jelas, atau janji putih terlalu cepat

Putih cepat bukan hadiah. Kadang-kadang itu tanda kulit sedang dibakar perlahan-lahan.

Jujur, anda pernah nampak tanda macam urat hijau halus timbul di p**i selepas pakai produk tertentu?

How Does It Happen?

Common triggers
• Work, study pressure, or emotional conflicts
• Heat, sweating, exercise

When you are stressed, the body releases hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones act like an “alarm system,” overstimulating the immune system.

As a result, skin cells release histamine, which causes:
1. Blood vessels to dilate
2. Fluid to leak into the skin layers
3. Swelling, redness, and intense itching


Key Features of Stress-Induced Hives
• Raised rashes
They may be white or red, vary in size, and can “move” from one area to another.
• Intense itching, sometimes with a burning sensation or a prickling feeling.
• Usually disappear within 24 hours, but may recur if stress is not managed.


Do not ignore your body’s signals.
If your skin suddenly becomes itchy for no obvious reason after being scolded by your boss or while facing a critical deadline, it may be a sign that you need to pause, take a deep breath, and calm yourself down.

Pernah tak tengah serabut fikir pasal kerja atau ada masalah peribadi, tiba-tiba badan rasa gatal dan naik gegata?

Stress-induced urticaria atau gegata akibat stres bukannya alahan makanan biasa. Ia adalah tindak balas fizikal terhadap tekanan emosi yang melampau.

Bagaimana Ia Berlaku?

Pencetus yang kerap
• Tekanan kerja, belajar atau konflik emosi
• Panas, peluh, senaman

Apabila anda stres, badan akan melepaskan hormon seperti kortisol dan adrenalin. Hormon ini bertindak sebagai "penggera" yang mengaktifkan sistem imun secara berlebihan.

Akibatnya, sel-sel kulit melepaskan histamin yang menyebabkan:

1. Salur darah mengembang.
2. Cecair keluar ke lapisan kulit.
3. Terbentuknya bengkak, merah, dan rasa gatal yang amat sangat.

Ciri-Ciri Utama Gegata Stres

• Ruam Timbul
Boleh jadi putih atau merah, saiznya pelbagai dan boleh "berjalan" (pindah tempat).

• Rasa gatal yang kuat, kadang-kadang rasa pijar atau seperti dicucuk jarum.

• Selalunya hilang dalam 24 jam, tetapi akan muncul semula jika stres tidak diuruskan.
Jangan abaikan isyarat badan. Jika kulit mula gatal-gatal tanpa sebab selepas anda dimarahi bos atau sedang deadline kritikal, itu tandanya anda perlu tarik nafas dan ambil masa untuk bertenang.
