What Causes Pigmentation — and How to Fade It Naturally ?
Pigmentation is one of the most common skin concerns we see at BELAMÉRES. Whether it’s sun spots, post-acne marks, or melasma, uneven skin tone can affect your confidence. Fortunately, with the right diagnosis and treatment, you can significantly fade pigmentation and restore your glow — naturally and effectively.
The different types of pigmentation
Understanding what type of pigmentation you have is key to treating it correctly. At BELAMÉRES, we distinguish between:
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): From acne or injury
- Sun-induced pigmentation: UV exposure (solar lentigines)
- Melasma: Often hormonal and symmetrical on cheeks or forehead
- Freckles: Genetic, usually harmless

H2: What causes pigmentation?
- Sun exposure (the #1 culprit)
- Hormonal changes (pregnancy, birth control, menopause)
- Skin inflammation (acne, eczema, improper treatments)
- Genetics and ethnicity
Our Ultrasound Skin Scan can detect pigmentation even when it’s not yet visible — allowing us to treat it early.
How to fade pigmentation naturally
We believe in working with your skin, not against it. Natural fading doesn’t mean “DIY masks” — it means treatments and ingredients that support your skin’s own healing process.
At BELAMÉRES, we recommend a combination of:
- Low-Level Laser Therapy — boosts cell renewal and reduces inflammation
- Bio-Needling Facial — enhances product penetration and skin regeneration
- Medical-grade brightening products like NIMUE or GERNÉTIC serums
- Consistent SPF protection with physical filters
Ingredients to look for
If you’re treating pigmentation at home, look for these proven ingredients:
- Niacinamide — evens tone and strengthens the barrier
- Azelaic Acid — anti-inflammatory and brightening
- Vitamin C (stable forms) — antioxidant and pigment reducer
- Tranexamic Acid — effective for melasma
- Retinaldehyde or Encapsulated Retinol — in the right % and formula
