About Pigmentation & Melasma Correction
““Personalised correction for clearer, brighter and more even-toned skin.””
Pigmentation & Melasma Correction at KAC
Pigmentation is not the same in every skin. Melasma, sun spots, post-acne marks and uneven skin tone can develop from different causes and at different depths within the skin.
At Karthika’s Aesthetic Centre, treatment begins with a detailed skin assessment rather than selecting a treatment based only on what is visible on the surface.
Our doctor-guided approach evaluates the type, depth and pattern of pigmentation, along with factors such as sun exposure, hormonal influences, previous treatments, skin sensitivity and lifestyle.
Depending on your skin condition, your personalised program may combine professional peels, skin-brightening and repair protocols, mesotherapy or infusion-based treatments, IPL/photo facial, carbon laser, Q-Switch technology or other appropriate skin technologies.
For melasma, our goal is not aggressive treatment. We focus on controlled correction, skin-barrier protection and long-term maintenance to reduce the risk of irritation and rebound pigmentation.
Because pigmentation—especially melasma—can recur, maintenance, sun protection and appropriate home care remain an important part of the treatment journey.
Treatment Procedures and Details
Your Pigmentation Assessment
Every pigmentation program at KAC begins with understanding why the pigmentation has developed and how deeply it is affecting the skin.
During your consultation, we assess:
• Type of pigmentation
Melasma, sun pigmentation, post-inflammatory pigmentation, post-acne marks or uneven tone.
• Pigmentation depth
Whether the pigmentation appears predominantly superficial, deeper or mixed.
• Skin condition & sensitivity
Barrier health, acne tendency, inflammation, dryness and previous treatment history are considered before selecting active treatments.
• Possible triggers
Sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, heat, certain skincare practices and lifestyle factors may influence pigmentation.
Based on this assessment, a personalised treatment plan is created rather than using the same procedure for every client.
Detailed Skin Assessment
Pigmentation type, depth, skin condition and contributing factors are assessed before treatment planning.
Your Personalised Treatment Program
The exact treatment combination varies according to the pigmentation type, skin sensitivity and clinical assessment.
A KAC pigmentation program may include professional chemical peels, vitamin C and brightening protocols, mesotherapy or skin infusion, IPL photo facial, carbon laser, Q-Switch laser, microneedling-based procedures and calming or repair treatments where appropriate.
Not every client requires laser treatment, and not every form of melasma should be treated aggressively.
For sensitive or active melasma, the initial focus may be on stabilising the skin, improving the barrier and gradually controlling pigment production before introducing stronger procedures.
Treatments are usually planned as a series of sessions, with progress reviewed between appointments. The intensity and combination can be modified according to how your skin responds.
Home care, daily sun protection and maintenance are essential parts of achieving and preserving improvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need? The number of sessions depends on the pigmentation type, depth and skin response. Most correction programs require a series of treatments rather than a single session. Can melasma come back? Yes. Melasma is a recurring pigmentation condition influenced by factors such as sun exposure, heat and hormones. Treatment focuses on correction, control and maintenance. Will everyone need laser treatment? No. Laser or light-based treatments are selected only when appropriate. Some pigmentation conditions respond better to peels, skin-repair protocols and combination therapy. When will I see results? Improvement is usually progressive. Superficial pigmentation may respond earlier, while deeper or long-standing melasma often requires more time and maintenance. Is home care important? Yes. Daily sunscreen, appropriate skincare and trigger management are essential for maintaining results and reducing recurrence.
