The Fitzpatrick Skin TypeThe Fitzpatrick skin type classification is a system that categorises individuals based on their skin's response to UV light. Skin types III-V are moderate to dark skin tones, and it's essential to consider the potential for hyperpigmentation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) when recommending peels. | Fitzpatrick Type III:Recommend Tyrosinase Inhibitor Level 2 and Above: For individuals with Fitzpatrick Type III skin, which typically includes individuals with a light to medium complexion that may tan easily, you recommend the use of tyrosinase inhibitors at Level 2 and above. Tyrosinase inhibitors are substances that can help regulate melanin production, and in this context, they aim to minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation. | Fitzpatrick Types IV-VI:Required Inhibitor Pre-Peels Level 2 and Above: For individuals with Fitzpatrick Types IV and V, which include individuals with moderate to dark skin tones, we specify that a tyrosinase inhibitor is not just recommended but required prior to peels, especially at Level 2 and above. This is likely due to the increased risk of hyperpigmentation in individuals with darker skin tones. |
For a consultation with our skin care professional Crystal Braaksma RN to discuss your goals and needs.
| These recommendations align with the importance of considering the potential for hyperpigmentation in individuals with more melanin in their skin. Using tyrosinase inhibitors before peels can help minimise the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is a common concern for individuals with skin types that are more prone to pigmentation changes. It's crucial to note that individual responses to treatments can vary, and a thorough consultation with a skincare professional or dermatologist is essential. They can assess the individual's skin type, history, and potential risk factors to create a personalised and safe treatment plan, especially when considering chemical peels or other skin-resurfacing procedures.
