Pigment & sun damage

Sun spots, freckles that darkened and melasma look alike and behave differently. Treating the wrong one with heat can make it worse.

Spots, melasma and uneven tone

How we
look at it.

Every pigment plan starts with a skin examination under magnification. Melasma gets gentler, slower treatment and a long maintenance plan.

Your options,
side by side.

3 treatments for pigment. Tap one for what to expect on the day and afterwards.

A typical plan, not a prescription. Your doctor confirms candidacy, dosing and timing after examining your skin. Results vary from person to person.

Questions

Is it safe on darker skin?

Yes, with the right device and settings. Some treatments, like IPL, are not suitable for every skin tone and we will tell you which ones.

Will it come back?

Sun damage you treat stays treated; new sun creates new spots. Melasma is chronic and needs maintenance.

Start with
a conversation.

Forty-five minutes with a doctor, in clinic or by video. You leave with a written plan and prices, whether or not you go ahead.
