Pigmentation and Melasma Treatment in Montreal & Laval

The pigmentation and melasma treatment at IPL Lab Medispa is a customized, professional course designed to fade the look of dark spots, sun spots, melasma and post-inflammatory marks, and to even out and brighten the complexion. This ten-session package is our most complete option, ideal for gradual, comprehensive improvement with maintenance built in. Every session is tailored to your skin at our Montreal and Laval medispa, and the course pairs naturally with our wider range of hyperpigmentation and melasma treatments.

How the pigmentation and melasma treatment works

At each visit, your specialist tailors the pigmentation and melasma treatment to your skin on the day, typically combining gentle resurfacing or a targeted peel with brightening, melanin-regulating actives, and a soothing finish. The aim is to gradually reduce the appearance of excess pigment, soften uneven tone, and restore a brighter, more even complexion over a course. Because melasma is driven by sun, heat and hormones, daily sun protection is essential, and the condition is managed rather than permanently cured — results are best maintained with ongoing care.

What to expect over ten sessions

Pigmentation and melasma treatment results build gradually and cumulatively, and consistency matters more than intensity. Spaced about two to three weeks apart, this complete ten-session course is designed to steadily even out tone and fade the look of dark spots over time, with maintenance built in. Melasma in particular can fade and then return with sun exposure, so daily broad-spectrum SPF and a gentle routine between sessions are essential to protect and hold your results.

Who it’s for

This course is well suited to anyone with dark spots, sun spots, melasma, post-acne marks or generally uneven skin tone who wants a professional, customized, gradual approach. A personalized consultation and skin analysis at our Montreal or Laval medispa confirms your pigment type and maps out the safest, most effective plan for your skin tone — important, since some pigment concerns need gentler protocols.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pigmentation and melasma treatment?
It is a customized, specialist-led course that combines gentle resurfacing or targeted peels with brightening, melanin-regulating actives to fade the look of dark spots, sun spots, melasma and uneven tone over a series of sessions.

How many sessions of pigmentation and melasma treatment do I need?
Results build cumulatively, so a course works best. This ten-session package is our most complete option for gradual, comprehensive improvement with maintenance built in; the six-session course is a balanced option and the three-session course a focused start. Your specialist will advise.

Can melasma be cured?
Melasma is managed rather than permanently cured — it can fade with treatment and then return with sun, heat or hormonal changes. Daily broad-spectrum SPF and ongoing maintenance are the keys to holding your results.

Is there downtime?
It depends on the steps used that day — a targeted peel or resurfacing may bring mild redness or light flaking for a few days, while a gentle brightening session has little to none. Strict sun protection afterward is essential to avoid rebound pigmentation.
