SKIN TREATMENTS · MOTI NAGAR, DELHI NCR
Pigmentation and dark spots are closely related concerns — both involve patches of skin appearing darker than the surrounding area — and are among the most common reasons patients visit UK's Derma in Moti Nagar, Delhi. Because causes and treatment options overlap significantly, both are covered together on this page rather than as separate, near-identical pages.
In short: Pigmentation and dark spots are evaluated together during your consultation, since the underlying cause (sun exposure, hormonal changes, post-acne marks, or other factors) determines which treatment approach is suitable.
Common contributors include sun exposure, hormonal changes, post-inflammatory marks left behind after acne or injury, and genetic factors. Identifying the likely cause helps guide which treatment is appropriate.
If you've noticed dark patches, sun spots, melasma-like patches, or marks left behind after breakouts, a dermatology consultation can help clarify what's causing them and whether treatment is likely to help.
Depending on the type and depth of pigmentation, the dermatologist may suggest topical treatments, in-clinic procedures such as chemical peels, or a combination — along with realistic expectations for how gradually pigmentation typically responds to treatment.
The dermatologist examines the affected skin, asks about sun exposure and skincare history, and explains the recommended approach, including sun-protection guidance that supports any treatment.
Daily sun protection is usually an important part of managing pigmentation, alongside any in-clinic or topical treatment recommended for you.
