What Causes These Lesions?

 

Skin lesions can have different origins, which is important for determining the right treatment.

• Present from Birth: Some lesions, such as Port Wine Stains and Hemangiomas, are congenital.

• Developed Over Time: Others appear later in life due to factors like natural ageing, excessive sun exposure, environmental damage, or prior injury.

• Genetic Factors: Pigmented lesions, which can vary widely in size and color, may also have a genetic component.

​

Why Do They Appear Later in Life?

 

While many lesions are benign, their root causes are varied:

• Genetics & Development: Some lesions are present from birth (congenital) or have a strong genetic link, meaning you are predisposed to developing them.

• Environmental Damage: The most common acquired cause is chronic sun exposure, which accelerates ageing, damages the cellular structure, and triggers pigment overproduction.

• Hormonal Changes: Fluctuations in hormones can cause lesions like Melasma to appear or worsen.

• Ageing & Trauma: Natural collagen loss with age weakens capillary walls, and injuries can lead to post-inflammatory pigmentation.
