Melanin-Rich Skin

Thoughtfully selected treatments for melanin-rich skin, with careful consideration given to pigmentation, sensitivity, healing response, and your individual skin goals.

Understanding Melanin-Rich Skin

Melanin-rich skin can be more prone to developing dark marks after acne, inflammation, irritation, or injury. Selecting the right treatment, skincare preparation, and treatment settings is important for achieving improvement while minimizing unnecessary irritation and pigment changes.

Common Concerns We Treat

• Acne and congestion – breakouts, clogged pores and excess oil
• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation – dark marks left behind after acne or irritation
• Uneven skin tone – areas of discolouration, dullness or patchy pigmentation
• Melasma – hormonally influenced or recurring areas of pigmentation
• Acne scarring – uneven texture, depressions and enlarged pores
• Ingrown hairs – bumps and discolouration caused by trapped hair
• Dryness and sensitivity – irritation, dehydration or a weakened skin barrier

Treatment plans are selected according to your skin tone, concern, medical history, current skincare routine, and previous response to treatments.

Suggested Treatment Options

Treatment recommendations are personalized. Skin preparation, adjusted settings, or a test spot may be recommended before certain treatments.

The safest and most effective plan depends on the cause of your concern, not only your skin tone. Your provider may recommend controlling active inflammation, preparing the skin, or strengthening the skin barrier before beginning more advanced treatments.
