About pigmentation & skin brightening at Thamaraa
Pigmentation is common in Indian skin and tends to recur if triggers such as sun exposure, hormones and heat are not managed. Good results come from patience and a combination approach: daily sun protection, medical creams, in-clinic peels or laser toning, and maintenance. Your dermatologist first identifies the type and depth of pigmentation, since treatments that suit one type can worsen another.

Read moreFrequently asked questions
Can melasma be cured permanently?
Melasma can be controlled and lightened significantly, but it can return, especially with sun exposure. Maintenance helps keep it under control.
Will treatment make me fairer?
The goal is a healthier, more even tone, not changing your natural skin colour.
Why do I get dark marks so easily?
Skin with more melanin reacts to inflammation by producing extra pigment. Early treatment of the cause helps prevent marks.
Is tranexamic acid a bleaching agent?
No. It works by reducing signals that stimulate pigment production, rather than bleaching the skin.
Not sure which treatment is right for you?
Start with a consultation. The doctor will examine your skin or scalp, explain what is going on and suggest a plan that fits your concern and budget.
