Not all pigmentation is created equal. 🤎
Sun Damage: Often appears as individual brown spots or freckles caused by cumulative UV exposure. These spots tend to be more defined and can become more noticeable over time.
Melasma: Usually appears as larger, patchy areas of brown or gray-brown pigmentation—often on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, and chin. Hormones, heat, and UV exposure can all contribute to flare-ups.
And here’s the important part: what works for sun spots may not be the right approach for melasma. Treating pigmentation starts with identifying what you’re actually dealing with.
At Eluma, we can help determine the best treatment plan for your skin—whether that means medical-grade skincare, chemical peels, laser treatments, or a combination approach.
