Pigmentation—whether it’s acne marks, melasma, or stubborn sun spots—can take a toll on your skin’s natural glow. It not only affects appearance but also self-confidence. At Airaclinics in Hyderabad, we offer personalized pigmentation treatment plans that are safe, non-bleaching, and effective for Indian skin tones.
We don’t just cover up dark spots—we treat the root cause to reveal clearer, brighter skin.
What Causes Skin Pigmentation?
Pigmentation happens when melanin, your skin’s natural pigment, is produced unevenly. This could be due to:
- UV damage from sun exposure
- Hormonal fluctuations (e.g. pregnancy, contraceptives)
- Post-inflammatory responses (acne, burns, or cuts)
- Genetics or ethnicity
- Aging and pollution
- Use of incorrect skincare or cosmetics
The underlying cause determines how deep and stubborn your pigmentation may be—so getting it properly diagnosed is the first step.
Types of Pigmentation We Treat:
Not all pigmentation is the same. At Airaclinics in Hyderabad, we carefully identify the pigmentation type to select the most effective treatment:
| Pigmentation Type | Common Areas | Causes |
|---|---|---|
| Melasma | Cheeks, upper lip | Hormonal changes, sun exposure |
| Post-inflammatory | Face, back | Acne, burns, rashes |
| Sunspots / Age spots | Forehead, hands | Long-term UV damage |
| Freckles | Nose, cheeks | Genetic & sun exposure |
| Tanning & Dullness | Face & neck | Sun, pollution, lack of exfoliation |
Pigmentation in Men vs Women:
While pigmentation is often more associated with women due to hormonal shifts, men are equally prone to:
- Sun-induced spots (especially in outdoor jobs)
- Acne-related pigmentation
- Pigmentation from shaving or beard irritation
We provide gender-neutral treatments tailored to different skin types and lifestyles.
How We Treat Pigmentation at Airaclinics – Step by Step
1. Expert Skin Assessment:
Your dermatologist examines the depth, cause, and extent of pigmentation using digital skin analysis.
2. Personalized Treatment Plan:
We select a mix of treatments suited for your pigmentation type and skin tone:
- Q-switched lasers to break down deep melanin
- Chemical peels to exfoliate pigmented layers
- Medical-grade skin brightening serums
- Microneedling with serums for cell renewal
3. Active Treatment Phase:
Multiple sessions (usually 4–6) are spaced out over weeks. You’ll begin seeing visible lightening from the second session onward.

We guide you through a skincare routine focused on:
- Broad-spectrum SPF

Impact of Pigmentation on Mental Well-being:
Many patients report feeling less confident or socially conscious due to visible pigmentation. At Airaclinics, we acknowledge the emotional side of skincare and offer support throughout your treatment journey—ensuring your comfort and confidence are restored, inside and out.
Common Myths About Pigmentation:
Let’s clear a few things up:
- Myth: Pigmentation is just dirt or tan.
It’s not. It’s often deep-rooted melanin imbalance, not surface-level discoloration. - Myth: Fair skin doesn’t get pigmentation.
All skin tones can suffer from uneven patches or dark spots. - Myth: Natural remedies like lemon juice can treat it.
These often irritate the skin and worsen the condition. - Myth: Pigmentation will go away with time.
Without treatment, it may persist or even deepen—especially if triggered by hormones or sun.
