Targeted solutions for dark spots, melasma, and uneven tone — clinically proven treatments that address pigmentation at its root for lasting skin clarity.
Pigmentation disorders — from localised dark spots and melasma to widespread uneven tone — occur when melanocytes produce excess melanin. This can be triggered by sun exposure, hormones, inflammation, or genetic predisposition, and often requires a multi-pronged treatment approach.
At Aliva Aesthetics, we diagnose your specific pigmentation type before recommending any treatment. Melasma, for instance, requires a completely different approach to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — and getting the diagnosis right is what determines whether treatment succeeds.
Pigmentation has multiple causes — and the most effective treatment depends entirely on correctly identifying which is driving your concern.
UV radiation is the leading cause of pigmentation. It stimulates melanocytes to produce excess melanin, causing sunspots, freckling, and diffuse tan unevenness.
Melasma is driven by oestrogen and progesterone — triggered or worsened by pregnancy, oral contraceptives, and hormonal fluctuations.
Any skin trauma — acne, cuts, burns, or laser — can trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), particularly in darker skin tones.
Some individuals are genetically predisposed to uneven melanin distribution — including conditions like lentigines and familial hyperpigmentation patterns.
Certain drugs — including some antibiotics, chemotherapy agents, and anti-hypertensives — can trigger drug-induced hyperpigmentation.
Age spots and liver spots are clusters of melanin that accumulate in sun-exposed areas over decades — among the most common concerns in patients over 40.
Accurate classification of pigmentation type is the first and most critical step in effective treatment — determining both the approach and realistic outcome.
Discrete brown spots caused by cumulative UV exposure — highly responsive to laser toning and chemical peels.
Symmetrical brown patches on the face driven by hormones — requiring a carefully managed, combination approach.
Brown or reddish marks left after acne or skin trauma — treated with brightening agents, peels, and laser toning.
Genetic or UV-triggered freckles — treated with targeted laser or left as natural features depending on patient preference.
Brown flat spots appearing from mid-age onward in sun-exposed areas — highly responsive to Q-switched laser.
Generalised uneven complexion without discrete spots — treated with broad-coverage brightening and resurfacing protocols.

“Melasma across my cheeks and forehead had resisted every cream for years. Aliva's Tranexamic Acid peel and laser combination cleared it by 80% in 4 sessions. I finally feel comfortable going out without foundation.”
“Sunspots and age spots across my face and hands cleared dramatically with laser treatment at Aliva. The spots that had been there for 10 years faded visibly after just two sessions. Amazing results.”
