About Pigmentation and Melasma

At Dr Ali Cosmetics, we aim to help you achieve an even complexion, free from pigmentation and discoloration.

Pigmentation is a common concern for many of our patients. It refers to irregular skin discoloration, which includes sun spots, freckles, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and age spots.

Treating pigmentation can be tricky and requires expertise. That’s why it’s important for one of our experienced cosmetic clinicians to assess your skin before we proceed with treatment. This ensures that the treatment is tailored to your skin type.

Pigmentation Treatment

Uneven pigmentation, especially on the face, is a common issue. The face is the first thing people notice, and dealing with skin problems can affect your confidence. We’re here to help you achieve that clear, confident look you’ve always wanted.

Irregular pigmentation can show up in different forms, such as:

  • Sunspots
  • Freckles
  • Melasma
  • Age spots (Solar Lentigos)
  • Hyperpigmentation (including post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)

These conditions can become more noticeable with age and are caused by a combination of environmental factors and genetics. The treatment we recommend will depend on your skin type and specific needs. Our team will assess your pigmentation and develop a treatment plan that may include one or multiple therapies.

We offer a variety of treatments, including IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), Q-switch laser for pigmentation removal, and Surgitron™ procedures to remove raised spots or lesions without scarring. We also offer skin needling, hormone assessments, prescription creams, and chemical peels.

Our treatments are designed to ensure minimal discomfort. For sensitive areas, we can use topical numbing agents. You can expect to see results within 5 to 7 days, although more complex issues may require multiple sessions over 6 weeks.

Causes of Pigmentation

Several factors contribute to pigmentation, including genetics, skin type, hormonal changes, and sun damage. At Dr Ali Cosmetics, we use advanced laser technology like IPL, Q-switch laser, and Surgitron™ to treat pigmentation caused by sun damage, freckles, melasma, age spots, and hyperpigmentation.

We also offer other treatments, such as skin needling, prescription creams, and chemical peels. For more stubborn pigmentation like melasma, we often combine multiple treatments.

Before starting any treatment, we offer a free consultation to ensure we provide the best solution for your skin.
