Irregular skin pigmentation is commonly caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes or acne. Post-acne pigmentation, ‘age spots’ or melasma can be very troublesome skin concerns that are usually resistant to over the counter skin products, and get worse with time. A potent treatment plan managed by a specialist is the best way to ensure that your pigmentation is not only reduced, but does not recur.
Our Pigmentation Programme uses a combination of peels and prescription strength products to suppress further pigment production and to reduce irregular pigment patches present in the skin. We will also construct an ongoing management plan to maintain your results.
Our Expertise
We have a range of peels and products that target pigmentation so that we can choose the best plan for you. Active ingredients that we use are tretinoin, hydroquinone, kojic acid, ascorbic acid and arbutin.
The key to getting great results with a Pigmentation Programme is correct product use and regular review. Simply purchasing skin lightening products and using them in the same way that you would your regular skincare is unlikely to yield results, and could even cause additional skin problems. At Story, we offer a comprehensive personal service to hold your hand and monitor your skin’s response every step of the way through the programme.
Our Pigmentation Programme includes; a pre and post programme skin scan, consultation and review with a specialist as often as is required, skin preparation with an in-clinic peel and specialist home product kit.
