PIGMENTATION

Say goodbye to brown marks and hello to bright, even skin.

Brown marks, sun spots, and uneven tone can make your skin look dull or patchy and sometimes even make you feel older than you are, even though your skin is perfectly healthy underneath.

If you find yourself constantly reaching for foundation just to even things out, you’re not alone. Those stubborn brown marks are one of the most common skin concerns we treat, and with the right approach, they don’t have to be permanent.

Our clients come to us because of our transformative pigmentation results. We understand how insecure pigmentation can make you feel.

You can be sure you’re in the right hands here – we won Best Results for Pigmentation for Australia and NZ at the Best in Skin awards for 2025.

Why it happens

Pigmentation can pop up thanks to too much sun, hormones (hello pregnancy or medication changes), or even genetics. It’s your skin’s way of overreacting. Those pigment cells work overtime and create uneven patches of light or dark tone.

Our advice

Apply a high-quality SPF daily to prevent new pigmentation from surfacing and to make treatments more effective.

Common types

Melasma

A hormonal type of pigmentation often caused by pregnancy or medications. It’s when your Melanin Stimulating Hormone is overproducing therefore creating excess pigment in the form of large blocks of pigment mirrored on either side of the face.

Chloasma

A type of pigmentation that happens when you’re pregnant. Once you’ve had your baby and the pigmentation sticks around, it’s then called melasma.

Sun Damage

Prolonged sun exposure in the past can present as small patches and uneven skin tone. Treatments work extremely well for this type of pigment.

Lentigines (Age Spots)

A type of pigmentation caused by sun damage, often appearing on the skin in 40-50 year olds.

Ephelides (Freckles)

A genetic type of pigmentation that’s caused by the sun. Removal of freckles is treated extremely well, but because of genetics, they may come back in a year or two. Often clients will treat their skin yearly for this.

Treatment options

Depending on your type of pigmentation, skin tone, and specific concerns, we may recommend:

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)

Using the Lumecca IPL, we can achieve pigmentation removal in as little as 3 treatments. Perfect for pigmentation caused by the sun.

Bye Bye Pigment Package

Perfect for those with hormonal pigmentation conditions. Also great for darker skin tones concerned with pigmentation. Includes cosmelan peel, 2 LED treatments, and 7 prescribed skincare products.

Dermapen Skin Needling

Stimulates collagen and helps break up pigmented cells, replacing them with fresh, even-toned skin

Hello New Skin Cells

Customised formulas to lift pigmented skin cells and encourage even cell renewal.

Prescribed Home Care

Medical-grade products that prevent new pigmentation while fading what’s already there.

Results you can expect

Other pigmentation treatments drag on for months, ours don’t. Many of our clients see real results in 10 days to a month: brown spots fade, skin tone balances, and a fresh, glowing complexion emerges. The change is noticeable, friends will ask what you’ve done and soon enough, you’ll feel confident showing off your skin makeup-free.

Why we get results.

Pigmentation is one of our most requested skin concerns to treat. We have had numerous experiences with pigmentation and are rarely unable to clear it. Our before and afters speak for themselves.

We understand the complexities of pigmentation and ensure we identify the type of pigment along with the cause. This is something not a lot of skin and dermal therapists can do confidently, which often results in the wrong treatment plan being recommended and why a lot of people don’t get the results they’re after.

Because of our knowledge, experience, and confidence with pigmentation, we’ve become a sought-out pigmentation specialist in Australia.

Recently, Chantal – head therapist and owner of Chantal Louise Skin won Best in Skin for Pigmentation results in Australia and New Zealand.

Chantal is serious about ensuring our clients receive the results they desire, which is why she invests in only the best products and equipment to achieve that. For her, the most important thing when purchasing equipment or taking on any new skincare is that it will get results for her clients. She sees the amount of wrong information and lack of confidence in the industry surrounding pigmentation and ensures all her team are trained to her high standards to achieve client satisfaction.
