What is Pigmentation & Melasma Care?

Pigmentation in Sri Lankan skin must be treated carefully — aggressive treatment makes it worse. Our programs combine accurate diagnosis (melasma vs sun damage vs post-inflammatory marks), prescription lightening care, gentle in-clinic procedures and strict photoprotection.

What it treats

Melasma
Sun spots & photo-damage
Post-inflammatory pigmentation
Uneven skin tone
Dark patches on cheeks/forehead/upper lip

Who is it suitable for?

All pigmentation concerns — especially melasma, which needs long-term medical management rather than one-off procedures.

Expected results

Gradual, stable lightening. Melasma is controlled and maintained rather than 'cured' — honest expectations are part of good care. Individual results vary.
