MELASMA & HYPERPIGMENTATION LONDON
Understanding melasma and hyperpigmentation
Melasma and hyperpigmentation are skin conditions in which certain parts of the skin darken more than others. They are usually caused by an excess of melanin, the natural pigment responsible for skin colour.
- Melasma frequently manifests as symmetrical brown or grey-brown patches, especially on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. It is frequently caused by hormonal fluctuations, sun exposure, or pregnancy.
- Hyperpigmentation can appear anywhere on the body and is usually caused by UV exposure, acne scars, inflammation, or ageing.
Why choose melasma & hyperpigmentation treatments?
Compared to topical creams or homemade therapies, professional pigmentation treatments target the deeper layers of skin where discolouration occurs. Our personalised strategy contributes to:
- Reduce dark areas and spots for a more even complexion.
- Brighten and refresh dull skin tone.
- Promote natural cell regeneration for healthier, younger-looking skin.
- Boost confidence and restore a bright glow.
Our team employs evidence-based melasma & hyperpigmentation methodologies and clinically validated technologies to achieve safe, long-term results.
Who is a good candidate for melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment?
Melasma and hyperpigmentation treatments are appropriate for most adults who want to reduce uneven pigmentation. You may be a suitable candidate if:
- You have persistent pigmentation that has not improved with topical products.
- You want a non-surgical, minimally invasive solution.
- You are in good overall health and have fair expectations for the results.
During your appointment, we will evaluate your skin type, medical history, and specific problems to develop a personalised treatment plan.
What happens during the melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment?
Your melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment plan will be determined by the type and depth of your pigmentation. To obtain the best results from melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment, we frequently combine modern laser technology, chemical peels, and medical-grade topical treatments.
The procedure is as follows:
- Consultation: A comprehensive skin examination with a customised plan based on your skin type and pigmentation concerns.
- Treatment sessions: Gentle yet strong energy or active chemicals target pigmented cells, breaking them down and promoting natural healing and regeneration.
- Comfortable experience: The majority of patients report feeling light warmth or tingling after receiving the melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment. Anaesthesia is rarely required.
Sessions usually take 30 to 60 minutes, and most patients need a series of melasma & hyperpigmentation treatments spaced a few weeks apart for the best benefits.
Melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment aftercare and recovery
Following melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment, your skin may seem pink or feel sensitive, similar to a little sunburn. This typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. We’ll give you specialised aftercare advice, which could include:
To protect your skin, use a gentle, non-irritant cleanser and moisturiser.
Apply high-factor SPF everyday and avoid direct sun exposure and heat for a few days.
Avoid exfoliating treatments until your skin heals.
With proper care, your skin will quickly reveal a cleaner, brighter complexion.
Melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment results you can look forward to
Most patients see visible results after just a few melasma & hyperpigmentation treatments, with pigmentation gradually decreasing and skin tone becoming more consistent. The final effects take several weeks to appear as the skin regenerates.
Results can last several months, if not longer, especially with adequate sun protection and a strong skincare program. Many patients choose regular maintenance treatments to keep their complexion looking its best.
Minimising melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment risks and staying safe
Melasma and hyperpigmentation treatments are extremely safe when administered by a competent practitioner. Mild redness, transitory sensitivity, or mild flaking may occur, although these effects are transient.To further limit the dangers, we at Linde DermaLab recommend:
- Follow all pre- and post-treatment instructions.
- Avoid sun exposure and tanning before treatment.
- Inform us about any medicine or skin concerns during consultation.
How many melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment sessions will i need?
The number of melasma & hyperpigmentation treatment sessions required varies by person, depending on the degree and depth of the pigmentation. On average, patients notice significant improvement following 3 to 6 treatments, with maintenance sessions recommended once or twice a year for long-term results.
