How often should pigmentation spots be treated?

Usually, 3–5 treatments are recommended, depending on skin type, pigmentation depth and desired result. Mild pigmentation may respond faster, while sun-related or older spots often need several sessions. Your Afacialist will create an individual recommendation after the skin analysis.

When is the best time for a pigmentation spot treatment?

The best time is from autumn to spring, because the skin should not be exposed to strong sun before or after the treatment. Tanned or recently sun-exposed skin is not ideal for laser treatments. You should also use SPF 50 daily after the treatment.

Can pigmentation spots come back after the treatment?

Treated pigmentation spots can remain significantly lighter, but new spots can appear due to renewed UV exposure. Sun, tanning beds and lack of sun protection especially promote renewed hyperpigmentation. A scientific review shows that broad-spectrum sunscreen can play a supportive role in melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Can I treat pigmentation spots during pregnancy?

During pregnancy, we recommend waiting with laser treatments and focusing on especially gentle skincare first. Pregnancy-related pigmentation is hormonally influenced and can react unpredictably. We are happy to advise you on suitable, gentle alternatives.

Which pigmentation spots are suitable for treatment at AFACIAL?

Mild sun spots, age spots, dull uneven skin tone and superficial post-acne discoloration are well suited. Suspicious, growing, bleeding or unclear skin changes are not suitable. These should always be checked by a dermatologist before any cosmetic treatment.

What is a pigmentation spot treatment – and why is it worth it?

Pigmentation spots are darker areas of skin caused by an overproduction of melanin, often appearing on the face, hands or décolleté. They are usually harmless, but they can make the complexion look uneven, patchy or less fresh.

At AFACIAL, we treat superficial pigmentation with LUMECCA, a modern IPL technology that works with intense pulsed light. The treatment can visibly brighten sun spots, age spots, mild pigmentation changes and post-acne discoloration while helping refine the overall skin appearance. For noticeable, growing or unclear moles, as well as pronounced melasma, we always recommend getting checked by a dermatologist first.

Tailored to your skin

Superficial pigmentation can be gradually brightened so your complexion appears calmer, fresher and more even.

LUMECCA works precisely and gently, with much shorter downtime than more intensive CO₂ laser treatments. In many cases, you can return to your daily routine quickly.

After the treatment, the skin often looks smoother, finer and more radiant – especially with dull skin, sun damage or uneven pigmentation.

Every treatment starts with a skin analysis. This allows us to adapt the intensity, skincare and active ingredients to your skin and your personal skincare goals.
