Pigmentation and Sun Damage
Skin Care Treatment for Pigmentation and Sun Damage
Subtle options to help reduce visible sun damage and pigmentation.
Sun exposure and pigmentation can lead to blotchy, uneven skin. Our clinical approach supports smoother tone & improved skin health with subtle, tailored care.
Pigmentation and sun damage are among the most common skin concerns. They often appear as freckles, dark patches, sun spots, or general discolouration, particularly on areas exposed to the sun. While some pigmentation is harmless, it can contribute to an uneven skin tone or a prematurely aged appearance.
At The Cosmetic Studio Noosa, we offer personalised treatment plans to help manage pigmentation and restore brighter, clearer-looking skin.
Contributing Factors:
Several internal and external elements contribute to pigmentation and sun-related skin damage.
UV Exposure: Prolonged sun exposure stimulates excess melanin production and contributes to sun spots.
Hormonal Changes: Hormonal fluctuations, particularly in women, can lead to melasma or uneven pigmentation.
Skin Trauma: Inflammation or injury from acne or procedures may result in post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Inconsistent Sun Protection: Irregular use of SPF can increase the risk of visible sun damage and uneven tone.
Ageing: As skin ages, its ability to repair pigment irregularities decreases.
Genetics: Some skin types are more prone to developing pigmentation over time.
An accurate assessment is essential because pigmentation can have different causes and depths within the skin. We take the time to evaluate your skin, history, and concerns, then create a tailored plan to help gradually reduce discolouration and support skin health long term.
Treatment Approach
Treating pigmentation and sun damage involves targeting both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. Depending on the severity and cause, we may use gentle peels, light-based treatments, or collagen-stimulating therapies to fade spots and even tone. Our approach supports gradual improvement, helping restore clarity and resilience to sun-affected skin.

This depends on the type and depth of pigmentation. Most clients benefit from a course of treatments tailored to their skin’s needs.
