Pigmentation treatments are designed to reduce or eliminate areas of hyperpigmentation, including sunspots, melasma, and uneven skin tone. The aim is to restore a brighter, more uniform complexion by targeting excess melanin within the skin.

• Type of Pigmentation: The success of treatment depends on whether pigmentation is superficial (such as sun damage) or deeper (such as melasma). Certain modalities are more effective for specific conditions.
• Skin type: Darker skin tones require careful selection of treatments, as some procedures, particularly aggressive lasers or deep peels, may increase the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
• Patience & Consistency: Pigmentation correction is a gradual process. Noticeable improvement typically requires consistent treatment over several weeks to months.

Every patients skin is unique. At consultation, we assess your skin type and pigmentation concerns to design a tailored treatment plan that delivers safe, effective, and long-lasting results.

Following a detailed consultation, medical-grade topical treatments may be prescribed. These can be used alone or combined with in-clinic procedures to enhance results and maintain long-term skin health.

Chemical peels exfoliate the upper layers of the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing a clearer, more even complexion.

• Superficial Peels (e.g., Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid): Ideal for mild pigmentation and dull skin, these peels provide gradual brightening with minimal downtime.
• Medium Peels (e.g., TCA - Trichloroacetic Acid): Target more pronounced pigmentation and can penetrate deeper into the skin for more noticeable results.
• Targeted/Combination Peels: Customised blends of acids are often used to address multiple concerns simultaneously, enhancing efficacy while maintaining safety.

Laser technologies precisely target melanin within the skin, breaking down pigment and promoting a more even tone.

PicoWay by Candela: Considered the gold-standard treatment for stubborn and deep pigmentation like melasma

Fractional Laser Resurfacing: Stimulates collagen and skin renewal by treating deeper layers, also highly effective for sun spots

Nd:YAG Laser: Effective for deeper pigmentation, including melasma, whilst also targeting the vascular component

Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production and accelerate skin renewal. When combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), it enhances healing and can improve pigmentation and overall skin quality.

Sun protection is essential in both treating and preventing pigmentation.

Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen (SPF 50+): Protects against UVA and UVB damage - we recommend Isdin Active Unify for Melasma

Daily Use is Crucial: Even minimal sun exposure can worsen pigmentation and reverse treatment results
