Pigmentation & Uneven Skin Tone

Pigmentation issues like dark spots, sun damage, or melasma can make your skin look older, tired, or uneven — even when you take good care of it. At Face Foundry, we understand how frustrating it can be to feel like your complexion doesn’t match how healthy or vibrant you feel inside. The good news? Pigmentation is treatable, and we have advanced, clinically proven solutions to help you achieve a clearer, more even skin tone.

Understanding Pigmentation & Uneven Skin Tone

Your skin colour is determined by melanin — a pigment naturally produced by cells called melanocytes. When these cells are triggered to produce too much melanin in certain areas, you get hyperpigmentation. This can show up as:

  • Sunspots or age spots
  • Melasma (hormone-related pigment patches)
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (marks left after acne or injury)
  • General uneven skin tone

Common causes include:

  • Sun exposure (the biggest factor in WA’s harsh climate)
  • Hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause, contraceptives)
  • Skin inflammation or injury
  • Certain medications or cosmetic products
  • Natural ageing and slower cell turnover

Common Signs You May Notice

  • Brown, grey, or reddish patches on the skin
  • Freckles or clusters of pigment that have darkened over time
  • Uneven tone between different areas of the face
  • Spots that seem to get worse with sun exposure

What Can Be Done?

At Face Foundry, we treat pigmentation using a tailored approach, often combining treatments for the best outcome:

Cosmelan – A powerful, professional depigmentation program that corrects stubborn pigmentation and helps prevent it from returning.

Secret RF – Radiofrequency microneedling to resurface skin, improve texture, and break up uneven pigment.

IPL Skin Rejuvenation – Light-based therapy to target pigment spots and stimulate fresh, even-toned skin.

Your personalised treatment plan will depend on your skin type, pigmentation type, and lifestyle.
