Understanding the Treatment
What Is Laser
Pigmentation Treatment?
Our medical-grade laser delivers precisely targeted light energy that's absorbed by excess pigment (melanin) in the skin. The pigment is shattered into tiny fragments which the body then naturally clears away over the following weeks — revealing a clearer, more even complexion. At our Cardiff Gate clinic, treatments are carefully tailored to your skin type and the type of pigmentation you have.

The Benefits
Why Choose Pigmentation
Treatment at Cardiff Gate?
Medical-Grade Laser Technology
Our advanced laser systems are designed specifically for pigmentation — far more effective and predictable than salon IPL devices.
Visible Clarity & Glow
Most clients see a clearer, brighter complexion within weeks. Dark patches fade and skin tone evens out beautifully.
Quick Sessions, Real Results
Sessions take 15–30 minutes — easy to fit around work in Cardiff, Newport or Caerphilly. Free on-site parking.
Tailored to Your Skin Type
Pigmentation responds best to a carefully tailored approach — we adapt every treatment to your skin tone and the type of pigmentation.
Qualified Cardiff Practitioners
Treatments are delivered by qualified, experienced laser practitioners in our HIW-approved Cardiff Gate clinic.
Minimal Downtime
Mild redness or temporary darkening of pigmented areas — both settle within a few days as the body clears the treated pigment.
Step by Step
Your Pigmentation Treatment Journey
Before Your Treatment
- Avoid sun exposure and self-tan for 4 weeks before
- Stop retinol, AHAs and exfoliating acids 5 days before
- Arrive with clean skin — no make-up on the area
- Patch test required at consultation (24 hours before)
During Your Treatment
After Your Treatment
- Mild redness for a few hours — like a light sunburn
- Pigmented areas may darken briefly before flaking away
- Strict SPF 50 daily — non-negotiable for 4 weeks
- Avoid sun, hot baths and saunas for 48 hours
Treatment Protocol & Results
Typical course: 3–6 sessions
Spaced 4–6 weeks apart — melasma needs a gentler approach
Is It Right For You?
Is This Treatment Right for You?
Ideal Candidates
- Sun damage and age spots on face, neck, chest and hands
- Melasma (managed with a tailored, gentler approach)
- Post-acne pigmentation
- Freckles and uneven skin tone
- Dull, mottled complexion
- Anyone committed to daily SPF protection
What We Can Treat
Realistic Expectations: Pigmentation responds well to a tailored laser course — but it can return if SPF is not used daily. Melasma needs ongoing management rather than a one-off cure.
When Not Suitable
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Active tan or recent sun exposure
- Active infection or broken skin
- Recent Roaccutane use (wait 6 months)
- Photosensitising medications
- Certain types of melasma (assessed at consultation)
Investment
