NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT
Pigmentation
We know that changes in skin tone are a natural part of life. We also understand that some people may wish to discuss options that address the appearance of skin tone variations.
Our clinic can provide consultations about pigmentation concerns. During consultation, a practitioner will assess your concerns, review your medical history and discuss cosmetic options that may be appropriate within the clinic’s scope of practice.

All cosmetic procedures carry risks and may not be suitable for everyone.
Before any procedure is performed, your practitioner will:
- review your medical history, medications and relevant health information
- examine the treatment area
- explain the proposed procedure, limitations and alternatives, including choosing not to proceed
- discuss possible risks and side effects, including less common but more serious complications
Risks associated with procedures may include:
- redness or swelling
- dryness or peeling
- skin sensitivity or irritation
- pigmentation changes
- infection or delayed healing
- temporary muscle weakness
- uneven or unexpected aesthetic outcomes
Pain and comfort levels vary between individuals and depend on the procedure used. Some procedures may cause sensations such as warmth, tingling, tightness, discomfort or pressure during or after treatment.
Written aftercare instructions will be provided if treatment is performed.
Commonly, we see sun-related uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks (for example, after breakouts or irritation). Suitability is assessed individually. Certain conditions—such as suspicious lesions, rapidly changing spots or complex melasma—may be better managed or co-managed by a GP or dermatologist.
The timing and extent of visible change depend on pigment type, depth, skin type and sun behaviour, and no particular result can be promised.
Some approaches can be adapted for deeper skin tones, but not all treatments are suitable. Darker skin types require conservative settings, careful product selection and very diligent sun protection to help reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or lightening. Your practitioner will advise what is, and is not, appropriate for your skin.
Yes. Pigmentation is often influenced by ongoing sun exposure, hormones, genetics and inflammation. Even after visible improvement, new or recurring pigmentation can develop. Long-term management commonly includes strict UV protection, maintenance skincare and, in some cases, periodic in-clinic review.
In some cases, pigment-focused peels and selected light- or laser-based treatments may be combined as part of a staged plan, if this is considered clinically appropriate. Combinations are planned case-by-case, with timing and settings adjusted for your skin type to support safety and recovery. For some individuals, combination treatment may not be recommended.
Your practitioner may recommend:
- Daily broad-spectrum SPF 50+ and protective measures (hats, shade where possible)
- Gentle cleansers and moisturisers suited to your skin
- Carefully selected pigment-targeting actives (for example, vitamin C or other brightening agents) introduced gradually, where appropriate
Home care does not replace medical treatment for pigmentary disorders, but it can be an important part of maintaining skin comfort and supporting cosmetic results where treatments are suitable.
