Understanding Pigmentation
Pigmentation concerns — particularly conditions such as melasma — are often complex and influenced by multiple factors, including genetics, hormones, sun exposure, inflammation, and skin barrier health. For this reason, pigmentation typically requires a structured, multi-step approach rather than a single treatment.
Many people find that pigmentation can improve and relapse over time, making long-term support, consistency, and maintenance an important part of management. Treatment plans are therefore designed with both short-term support and longer-term skin health in mind.
Pigmentation Support Programme: A Structured Approach
Our Pigmentation Support Programme combines in-clinic procedures with at-home skincare, designed to support the management of pigmentation concerns over time.
Rather than focusing on a single intervention, the programme takes a layered approach, addressing pigmentation both internally and at the skin’s surface, while supporting overall skin health.
What the programme may include:
In-Clinic Care
- A course of injectable treatments, typically performed at regular intervals as part of a structured plan.
- Treatment timing and frequency are determined by the clinician based on individual assessment.
At-Home Care
- Targeted skincare products to support pigment regulation and skin barrier recovery.
- Guidance on ongoing skin maintenance and daily care.
Optional Support
- Sunscreen recommendations discussed during consultation, where appropriate.
Each programme is personalised, and not all components are suitable for every individual
Clinician-Led Assessment
All advanced and injectable treatments are provided under medical oversight and require a consultation prior to commencement.
During your consultation, a qualified health professional will:
- Review your skin concerns and treatment history.
- Assess suitability based on medical history and risk factors.
- Discuss potential benefits, limitations, and alternative options.
- Develop and individualised plan tailored to your needs.
Some injectable treatments used in pigmentation management may involve medicines prescribed outside their approved indications. This decision is made by the clinician based on clinical judgement and individual assessment.
What to expect?
Individual responses to pigmentation treatments can vary significantly. While many people experience improvement, outcomes are influenced by factors such as skin type, underlying triggers, lifestyle, and adherence to ongoing care.
It’s important to understand that:
- Results are not guaranteed
- Multiple sessions and maintenance treatments may be required.
- Pigmentation can recur, particularly with sun exposure or hormonal changes
- Not all individuals are suitable for injectable or advanced treatments.
Your clinician will discuss expected outcomes and any relevant risks during consultation, allowing you to make an informed decision.
