Skin lightening treatments reduce the concentration or production of melanin in the skin. Melanin is the pigment responsible for the colour of our skin, eyes, and hair, and helps protect it from the sun. Decreasing melanin concentration can help fade darker areas and even out skin tones.

Pigmentation is caused by excess melanin production triggered by sun exposure, hormonal changes (such as pregnancy or contraceptives), inflammation from acne or injury, and ageing. Sun protection is essential during and after any pigmentation treatment to prevent recurrence.

Skin lightening treatments are procedures designed to reduce the appearance of dark spots or even out skin tone. These treatments are often used to target specific areas like age spots or birthmarks.

Some skin lightening clinics are open on Sundays. Browse Fresha to find providers near you with Sunday availability.

It can take time to see results from skin lightening treatments, and they cannot be guaranteed. Some, like chemical peels or lasers, might show noticeable results in one or two sessions. Others, like topical treatments, will take weeks or even months to have visible effect. It depends on the treatment chosen, and your skin type.
