Considered pigmentation & melasma, plainly.
Melasma and pigmentary disorders are among the most stubborn dermatological conditions. Our protocol uses a layered, patient strategy: topical agents (kojic, arbutin, tranexamic, retinoids), gentle peels, oral therapy where indicated, and strict daily photoprotection. Aggressive treatment can worsen melasma — restraint is everything.
We sequence pigmentation & melasma into a course that respects how skin actually changes — visible result by the end of the schedule, with a written review at the halfway mark. Strength is stepped up only when the previous session has settled completely.
A consultation precedes the first session: examination, history, and a written plan delivered the next morning. We do not double-book.
The cases we see most.
Hover or tap any indication for context. The decision to treat depends on the examination — we explain plainly when it is the right answer and when it is not.
