What to know.
Pigmentation can have different causes, from sun exposure to post-inflammatory change. An accurate assessment matters before choosing any peel or light-based option.
A plan built around you.
Before treatment
We review how the pigmentation developed, your skin type, medicines and any changing lesions. Some conditions require a medical opinion or may be worsened by unsuitable treatment.
What to expect
The plan may involve skincare advice, a peel or a suitable light-based treatment. We explain likely response, a gradual timeline and the importance of maintenance.
Identify the pigment before treating it.
Sunspots, post-inflammatory marks and melasma behave differently. We begin by understanding when the change appeared, how it has evolved and whether medical review is needed. A suitable plan may involve skin care, a peel or a light-based treatment; some pigmentation can worsen with poorly chosen heat or irritation.
Before your visit
Bring details of current products, medicines, pregnancy-related changes and previous pigment treatments. Do not conceal a new or changing lesion under a cosmetic treatment plan; ask for a medical assessment first.
Aftercare and review
Sun protection is central to maintaining any improvement. We explain the recovery and product routine for the chosen treatment, and review how the pigment responds before repeating it.
Suitability and aftercare matter.
Pigmentation can recur, particularly with sun exposure. Treatment carries a risk of temporary or persistent lightening or darkening, especially in susceptible skin.
Before you decide.
We can discuss your own history and goals in more detail at consultation.
Will a single session clear pigmentation?
Often not. The cause and depth influence treatment response, and some conditions need ongoing management.
Should every dark mark be treated cosmetically?
No. New or changing lesions should be medically assessed before an aesthetic procedure.
Is pigmentation permanent after treatment?
It can return, particularly with further sun exposure or an ongoing trigger. We discuss maintenance and realistic expectations from the start.
Could laser make melasma worse?
Some heat-based treatments can aggravate melasma. We assess the diagnosis and may recommend skin care or a different approach instead.
