LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy can help with pigmentation by using specific wavelengths of light to target skin cells, reduce inflammation, and regulate melanin production. It stimulates cellular repair and promotes an even skin tone by breaking down excess pigment over time. LED is a gentle, non-invasive treatment suitable for all skin types, making it an effective option for managing pigmentation.
Yes, preparing the skin prior to skin peel treatments is important to ensure optimal results and reduce the risk of side effects. Pre-treatment preparation often includes using gentle exfoliants, such as AHAs or retinoids, to condition the skin and promote even penetration of the peel. Additionally, avoiding sun exposure, harsh skincare products, and certain medications for a few days before treatment helps minimize irritation and enhance the skin's tolerance to the peel.
Skin peels, also known as chemical peels, are treatments that use acids or active solutions to exfoliate the skin by removing its outer layers. They stimulate cell turnover, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath while targeting concerns like pigmentation, acne, fine lines, and uneven texture. Peels vary in strength—superficial, medium, or deep—and can be customized to suit different skin types and concerns.

Restore an Even, Radiant Complexion with Targeted Pigmentation Treatments
Pigmentation issues, such as dark spots, melasma, and uneven skin tone, can affect anyone and are often caused by factors like sun exposure, aging, hormonal changes, or skin trauma. At Epicell, we provide customised solutions to address these concerns, offering advanced treatments including personalised skincare routines, Cutera Excel V Plus, Laser, IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy, and the Cosmelan peel. Our approach helps you achieve a brighter, more even complexion tailored to your skin’s unique needs.
Understanding Pigmentation
Pigmentation occurs when melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, is overproduced in certain areas, leading to dark patches or spots. Common types of pigmentation include:
Hyperpigmentation: Dark patches or spots from sun exposure, acne scars, or aging.
Melasma: Brown or gray patches often caused by hormonal changes, commonly appearing on the face.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): Dark spots following skin inflammation or injury, such as acne or eczema.
Post-Erythema Hyperpigmentation (PIE): Red spots following skin inflammation, such as acne.
Personalised Skincare for Pigmentation
Our personalized skincare plans include products and ingredients specifically chosen to reduce pigmentation, brighten skin, and prevent further discoloration. Each regimen is tailored based on an in-depth skin analysis to ensure it targets your unique pigmentation concerns.
Key Ingredients Often Included:
Vitamin C: Brightens skin and reduces dark spots.
Retinoids: Accelerate cell turnover, helping to fade pigmentation.
Hydroquinone: A powerful lightening agent that targets dark spots and discoloration.
AHAs/BHAs: Exfoliate and renew the skin, helping to fade surface pigmentation.
With consistent use of targeted products, personalised skincare helps to gradually improve pigmentation while maintaining skin health and preventing further discoloration.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Therapy
IPL therapy is a popular, non-invasive treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target pigmentation below the skin’s surface. This treatment breaks down melanin in pigmented areas, leading to a gradual fading of dark spots and an overall brighter complexion.
Benefits of IPL Therapy:
Reduces Dark Spots and Freckles: Targets pigment spots caused by sun exposure and aging.
Improves Skin Texture and Tone: Enhances skin clarity by minimizing discoloration and boosting collagen.
Minimal Downtime: Patients can typically resume daily activities immediately after treatment.
Safe and Effective: Suitable for many skin types, though lighter skin tones may respond best.
Best for: Sunspots, age spots, and freckles. IPL may require several sessions for optimal results.
Cosmelan Peel
The Cosmelan peel is a powerful depigmentation treatment designed to target stubborn pigmentation, including melasma and PIH. It uses a combination of active ingredients to reduce melanin production, helping to fade dark patches and prevent new pigmentation from forming.
Benefits of Cosmelan:
Effective for All Skin Types: Safe and effective across a wide range of skin tones and types.
Addresses Stubborn Pigmentation: Targets melasma and other forms of deep pigmentation that may not respond well to other treatments.
Comprehensive Results: Reduces the appearance of dark spots and improves overall skin tone and brightness.
Prevents Recurrence: By inhibiting melanin production, Cosmelan helps maintain results long after treatment.
Best for: Stubborn pigmentation, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Cosmelan requires a brief recovery period, and patients will receive detailed aftercare instructions to enhance and maintain results.
