Pigmentation (Face & Body)

Services Category

Pigmentation refers to dark spots or uneven patches on the skin caused by excess melanin (the natural pigment that gives skin its color). While it is common and usually harmless, pigmentation often affects confidence—especially when it appears on visible areas like the face, neck, arms, or hands.

What Causes Pigmentation?

There are many triggers for pigmentation, such as:

  • Sun exposure – the most common cause, leading to tanning and dark spots.
  • Hormonal changes – pregnancy, contraceptives, or thyroid imbalances.
  • Skin inflammation – acne, injuries, or certain treatments can leave marks.
  • Lifestyle factors – stress, diet, and lack of sun protection.

Types of Pigmentation

  • Freckles and Sunspots – Small brown spots from repeated sun exposure.
  • Melasma – Symmetrical dark patches, usually on the face.
  • Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) – Dark marks left after acne or injury.

Treatment Options

Every skin is different, so the treatment plan is personalized. Options include:
  • Medical-grade sunscreens to prevent further darkening.
  • Topical creams and serums that lighten pigmentation.
  • Chemical peels to gently exfoliate and renew skin.
  • Laser therapies for stubborn pigmentation.
  • Oral supplements (when needed) to support skin health from within.
