Pigmentation & Melasma

Pigmentation is a common skin concern that can present as uneven skin tone, dark spots, or patches of discoloration. It may develop gradually over time or appear following sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation.

At R Cosmetics, we take a personalised, results-focused approach to supporting brighter, more even-looking skin. Each treatment plan is tailored to your individual skin condition, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

  • Pigmentation can appear in different forms, including:

    • Sunspots (solar lentigines)

    • Melasma (hormonal pigmentation)

    • Post-inflammatory pigmentation (after acne or irritation)

    • Freckling and uneven skin tone

    Each type of pigmentation behaves differently, which is why accurate assessment is essential before selecting treatment.

  • Pigmentation is influenced by multiple internal and external factors, including:

    • Sun exposure (UV damage)

    • Hormonal changes (pregnancy, contraception)

    • Skin inflammation or trauma

    • Heat exposure

    • Genetics

    • Certain medications

    Managing pigmentation effectively requires both targeted treatment and ongoing skin protection.

  • We focus on supporting long-term skin health while addressing visible pigmentation concerns. Treatment plans are designed to:

    • Improve overall skin tone and clarity

    • Support brighter, more even-looking skin

    • Reduce the appearance of discolouration

    • Strengthen the skin barrier

    • Prevent recurrence through education and skincare

    Your plan may include a combination of in-clinic treatments and home care to optimise and maintain results.

  • Depending on your skin condition, we may recommend:

    Skin Needling
    Supports skin renewal and can assist in improving acne scarring and overall texture.

    Skin Peels
    Help to exfoliate the skin, reduce congestion, and support clearer-looking skin.

    LED Light Therapy
    Used to support inflammation reduction and promote skin healing.

    Clinical Skincare
    Targeted home care is essential in maintaining results and supporting long-term skin health.
