Pigmentation is one of the most common skin concerns in the Middle East, showing up as dark spots, patches, or uneven tone caused by sun exposure, hormones, acne marks, or inflammation. At Skin Institute Dermatology Centre Abu Dhabi, we provide dermatologist-led, medically advanced treatments to safely lighten discoloration and restore a brighter, clearer, and more even complexion.

We use the latest FDA-approved lasers, professional chemical peels, and medical-grade pigmentation protocols designed specifically for Middle Eastern and sensitive skin types. Our approach targets excess melanin safely and effectively for long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What Is Pigmentation?

Pigmentation occurs when the skin produces too much melanin due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, acne scarring, heat, or inflammation. Dermatologist-guided treatments target this melanin buildup to lighten dark areas, even skin tone, and restore clarity.
