Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is detected in the cheek and forehead regions. This occurs when melanin overproduces in response to inflammation, UV exposure, or injury.
T-zone pores appear visibly enlarged, likely due to excess sebum production and congestion. Pore size is partly genetic but can be minimized with consistent exfoliation and retinoids.
Early-stage photoaging markers detected in the periorbital area. Cumulative UV exposure degrades collagen and elastin over time. Daily SPF 50+ is non-negotiable.
Surface irregularities and rough patches suggest a buildup of dead skin cells. Chemical exfoliation 2-3x per week can smooth texture significantly within 4-6 weeks.
