Pigmentation & Tone

Pigmentation concerns arise from excess melanin production triggered by sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, or injury. Sun spots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and general uneven tone each have different underlying causes.

Effective treatment requires accurately identifying the type of pigmentation. Melasma responds differently than sun spots, and post-acne marks need a different approach than freckles. Misdiagnosis leads to ineffective or worsening treatment.

Our aestheticians perform a thorough skin assessment to identify your specific pigmentation type and create a targeted treatment plan. We combine in-clinic treatments with take-home skincare for the best long-term results.
