Best Pigmentation Treatment Sydney
The excessive skin pigmentation is triggered when melanocytes, or the pigment-producing cells, produce and dispose of melanin abnormally. Melanocytes determine the skin colour whilst melanin naturally protects the skin by absorbing UV radiation. The production of melanin is dependent on the sun exposure or UV radiation.
Aside from exposure to sun and UV radiation, hormonal imbalance, skin trauma and congenital disorder, excessive skin pigmentation is also one of the first signs of ageing, caused by uneven pigmentation. Our treatment for skin pigmentation Sydney will use light-based treatment, targeting melanin to clear damaged pigmented lesions from the body.
Our Bella Pelle Cosmetic Clinic is using top-of-the –line and very professional, high quality, and original Cynosure lasers and these 3 lasers can be used together for the maximum and optimum result of the pigmentation and Melasma treatment combined with a total care including our professional skincare products.
1. We are using top-of-the –line and very professional, high quality, and original Cynosure lasers and these 3 lasers can be used together for the maximum and optimum result of the Pigmentation and Melasma treatment.
2. We are targeting and treating Pigmentation and Melasma of not only epidermis but also dermis layer by mixing and matching 3 major lasers. This can lead to decrease a recurrence rate and removal of the Pgmentation and Melasma quicker.
If you treat only the epidermis, the Pigmentation and Melasma can re-emerge easily and the treatment is not effective.
3. We are using a special LED skin analysis machine, ‘Mark Vu’ to each individual client before and after the treatment and Analysing the individual skin type for the customised and personalised treatment.
It captures information from 6 areas affecting complexion skin health:
Wrinkles, red and brown spots, pores, evenness, porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores), and UV spots.
It will help to determine your facial rejuvenation program and will also include recommendations for ongoing skin health and home care routines.
It can also be used for reviews over time to compare your skin’s progress.
4. We are providing a total care package.
Our total care package is from consulting and recommending our professional line of skincare products and managing patients’ needs according to the skin analysis for preparing healthier skin prior to the treatments for keeping the better results. Also we are offering more gentle skin products for the sensitive skin condition after the treatments and scheduling follow up visits to assess your healing progress. Our professional skincare products are essential and central to preparation and outcomes and complement all the treatments.
The sun, skin ageing and genetics are among the main factors that influence skin pigmentation. In fact, from the age of 30, they can disrupt the production and distribution mechanism of melanin, the pigment that is responsible for the skin’s colouring. Melanin is therefore distributed unevenly in the skin and accumulates at the surface of the epidermis. Thus, skin pigmentation becomes uneven and dark spots form on the surface.
This can be the result of different problems:
Lentigo is also referred to as age spots when it is primarily due to intrinsic skin ageing, or solar lentigo when it is caused by regular and prolonged sun exposure.
Post-inflammatory pigmentation, following an acne spot, for example. The mark is then due to an excess of melanin produced by the inflammation.
Melasma is a common skin condition that causes dark, discoloured patches to form on the skin. It’s also known as chloasma, or the “mask of pregnancy,” when it appears in pregnant women. Although melasma occurs far more frequently in women, men can also experience it. The patches are usually darker than your natural skin tone and often appear symmetrically on the face, creating matching marks on both sides. Areas that are regularly exposed to the sun—such as the cheeks, forehead, bridge of the nose, chin, neck, and forearms—are most likely to develop melasma.
These brownish patches are harmless and don’t cause physical discomfort, but many people feel self-conscious about their appearance. Melasma can also fluctuate with hormonal changes, UV exposure, stress, and heat, making it a persistent concern for some individuals.
A: Pigmentation is caused by factors like sun/UV exposure, hormonal imbalance, skin trauma or ageing triggering uneven melanin production.
A: Melasma is skin discolouration causing symmetrical, brownish patches often on the face, sometimes triggered by pregnancy or hormonal changes.
A: We use multiple lasers (including Cynosure lasers), skin analysis with Mark-Vu, and tailor treatments for epidermal and dermal pigment layers.
A: If you follow post-treatment care (sun protection, skincare) the pigmentation is unlikely to return, though sun-caused pigmentation may reappear over time.
A: Pigmentation shows as brown or pinkish marks darker than your natural skin tone — freckles, sun spots, age spots or melasma are common examples.
A: Any area can be treated, commonly the face, neck, chest, hands, shoulders and backs which are exposed most to sun.
A: Most treatments are completed in about 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and type of lesion.
A: Most patients find the laser/ light-based treatment tolerable — many don’t need numbing cream; sensation is often compared to a snap of a thin rubber band.
