01
What it is
Pigmentation refers to areas of skin that appear darker than the surrounding skin because of increased melanin production or uneven pigment distribution.
It may develop because of sun exposure, acne or inflammation, hormonal changes, skin irritation and other individual factors. Since different types of pigmentation behave differently, identifying the cause is an important first step
02
What type of pigmentation do you have?
Pigmentation can appear in different patterns. Understanding the type, depth and likely trigger helps guide a more suitable treatment approach.
Flat darker areas that may develop after repeated or prolonged sun exposure.
Dark marks that can remain after acne or inflammation has settled.
Patchy brown or grey-brown pigmentation commonly seen on the cheeks, forehead or upper lip.
Areas of inconsistent colour that can make the complexion appear patchy.
Darkening that may occur after irritation, injury, acne or other skin inflammation.
Increased pigmentation caused by ultraviolet exposure.
WHO IT’S NOT FOR
Certain situations may require treatment to be delayed, modified or medically reviewed first.
Active skin infections, open wounds or significant irritation
Recent aggressive laser, peel or resurfacing procedures
Pregnancy or breastfeeding when a proposed treatment may not be suitable
Certain medications or medical conditions that may affect skin healing or sensitivity
Unclear or rapidly changing pigmentation that requires further medical evaluation first
03
What to expect
Skin & pigmentation assessment
Your dermatologist assesses the pattern, depth, distribution and possible triggers of pigmentation along with your overall skin type.
Personalised treatment planning
A treatment approach is selected according to pigmentation type, skin sensitivity, lifestyle and individual goals.
Progress & maintenance
Pigmentation often requires consistency. Follow-ups, skin care and sun protection may help maintain improvement over time.
04
Physician note
Pigmentation is not one single condition. Sun spots, post-acne marks, melasma and uneven skin tone can look similar but behave very differently.
At Averah, we first identify the pigmentation pattern and the factors that may be contributing to it before recommending treatment.

Questions
Pigmentation may be influenced by sun exposure, acne, inflammation, hormonal changes, skin irritation and individual skin characteristics.
Many pigmentation concerns can be improved, although results depend on the cause, depth, skin type and individual response.
There is no single treatment for every type of pigmentation. The right approach depends on the pigmentation pattern and your skin.
No. Melasma is one specific type of facial pigmentation, while pigmentation is a broader term covering several causes of skin darkening.
Yes. Acne can leave flat brown, red or darker marks after inflammation settles.
Yes. Recurrence can occur depending on sun exposure, hormones, inflammation and individual skin behaviour.
Sun protection is an important part of pigmentation management because UV exposure can worsen or reactivate many pigmentation concerns.
Timelines vary depending on the type of pigmentation, treatment selected, skin response and consistency with care.
A dermatologist consultation helps identify the type and likely cause of pigmentation before treatment is recommended.
