Work toward a more even-looking complexion with pigmentation care at Jeluja. Treatment distinguishes melasma, sun spots and marks left after skin inflammation.

Brightening means a more even tone

The goal of skin brightening is to reduce unwanted unevenness while respecting your natural complexion. Dark patches can look similar but have different causes, so treatment starts with identifying the pattern.

Melasma

Melasma commonly appears as patches of pigment and can recur. Sun protection and a tailored topical routine are central to care. Procedures may be considered selectively, but stronger treatment is not automatically better: irritation and heat can worsen pigmentation in susceptible skin.

Brown sun spots and post-acne marks

Selected sun-related spots may respond to light-based treatment, while marks following acne or irritation often need control of the underlying inflammation and a consistent skin-care plan. A new, changing, bleeding or unusual spot needs medical assessment before cosmetic treatment.

Treatment options

Your plan may include topical care, a carefully chosen peel or IPL photofacial for suitable concerns. The approach reflects the diagnosis, depth of pigment, skin tone and sensitivity. IPL should not be presented as a universal treatment for melasma or all darker patches.

Results develop over time

Pigmentation often needs a course of care and maintenance rather than a single appointment. Daily broad-spectrum sun protection, shade and protective clothing support the plan. Tinted sunscreen with iron oxides can be useful for melasma when appropriate for your routine.

Recovery and practical care

Peels and light-based treatments may cause redness, dryness or temporary pigment changes; burns, scarring or darker marks are possible. Keep your routine gentle during recovery and follow the specific aftercare plan.
