Melasma
A hormonally influenced pattern, often appearing as symmetrical patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip — typically the most nuanced type to treat, requiring a gentler, more gradual protocol.

Pigmentation Laser Treatment at Veloura, a premium destination in Gurgaon, guided by a proper diagnosis and realistic, maintainable expectations.

Pigmentation is one of the most misunderstood concerns in aesthetics — partly because it isn't one condition but several, each with a different cause and a different treatment path. At Veloura, a premium pigmentation care destination in Gurgaon, we start by identifying which kind you're actually dealing with, because treating melasma like a sunspot (or the reverse) is the single most common reason people feel let down by pigmentation treatment elsewhere.
Every plan begins with a proper diagnostic consultation, not a laser pointed at whatever's visible. Our pigmentation specialists evaluate the type, depth, and underlying cause before recommending Veloura Pigment Restore or, where appropriate, a complementary treatment better suited to your specific pattern.
Sun-induced pigmentation, hormonal melasma, and post-acne marks can look similar to the eye but behave completely differently under treatment — some respond beautifully to laser energy, others need a gentler, more gradual approach, and treating the wrong type aggressively can occasionally make things worse rather than better.
At Veloura, this is exactly why assessment precedes recommendation. Getting the diagnosis right the first time is what makes the difference between a treatment that works and one that disappoints.
Pigmentation correction at Veloura is delivered through Veloura Pigment Restore, a dedicated mode on our Alma Harmony platform engineered specifically to target excess melanin while protecting the surrounding tissue. The laser energy is absorbed selectively by pigment deposits, breaking them down so the body can clear them naturally — a mechanism that allows precision without broadly disrupting healthy skin around the treated area.
Pigmentation develops when melanin — the pigment that gives skin its colour — is produced unevenly or in excess. What triggers that varies considerably from person to person:
Getting pigmentation treatment right requires real diagnostic rigour, not guesswork. Every journey at Veloura follows the same standards:
Veloura Pigment Restore isn't the only path to clearer, more even skin — and for some pigmentation patterns, particularly melasma or sensitive skin, it isn't always the first recommendation. Depending on your diagnosis, your specialist may suggest one of these alongside or instead of laser treatment:
This is precisely why the consultation matters more than the treatment name — the right answer for your skin might not be the one you searched for.
Most people with melasma, freckles, sunspots, age spots, acne marks, or general uneven tone are reasonable candidates, following a proper skin assessment. Because pigmentation types vary so widely in how they respond, suitability is confirmed at consultation rather than assumed from the concern alone.
Pigmentation isn't a single event to fix once and forget — for many people, it's an ongoing relationship between skin and sun exposure, hormones, or genetics, similar to how skin needs continued sun protection or hydration to stay at its best. That's not a limitation of treatment; it's simply how melanin-producing skin works over a lifetime.
What this means practically: your results are highly maintainable with consistent sun protection and the aftercare your specialist recommends. Most patients enjoy long-lasting, visibly brighter, more even skin — and where a touch-up session is occasionally useful down the line, that's a normal part of ongoing skin care, not a sign the treatment didn't work. We'd rather set this expectation clearly upfront than have it come as a surprise later.
Pigmentation concerns are often tied closely to confidence, and Veloura treats that with real care. Consultations happen in private, unhurried rooms, your specialist takes the time to explain exactly what type of pigmentation you have and why, and every plan is set with realistic timelines you can actually trust.
What we treat
A hormonally influenced pattern, often appearing as symmetrical patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip — typically the most nuanced type to treat, requiring a gentler, more gradual protocol.
Well-defined, sun-triggered spots that generally respond well and predictably to laser correction.
Genetic in origin and often lightened effectively, though some patients prefer to reduce rather than fully clear them.
Marks left behind by acne or injury, which typically fade well with the right combination of laser and supportive skincare.
Broader, less defined discolouration from cumulative environmental exposure, often the most responsive category overall.
The technology

Nanosecond pulses shatter pigment without heating surrounding tissue — the property that makes it usable on the melanin-rich skin where aggressive resurfacing would cause rebound pigmentation.

Insulated needles place radiofrequency energy between 0.5mm and 4mm below the surface. Because the energy is delivered below the epidermis, it is safe across the deeper skin tones common in India.

Captures sub-surface pigment, vascularity and UV damage across eight layers. It is how we set a baseline, and how we prove — or disprove — that a plan is working.

Delivers focused ultrasound energy to the SMAS — the same layer a surgeon lifts — without an incision. Collagen remodels over three to six months, so the change appears gradually rather than overnight.
Questions

Most people with melasma, freckles, sunspots, age spots, acne marks, or uneven tone are reasonable candidates, confirmed through a professional assessment — since some pigmentation types respond better to alternative treatments than laser.
Most patients experience only mild discomfort, and cooling technology is used throughout to keep the procedure comfortable.
This depends on the type and depth of your pigmentation and your skin type — your specialist sets a specific plan at consultation rather than a fixed number for everyone.
Yes, with consistent sun protection and the aftercare routine your specialist recommends, results are highly maintainable. Because pigmentation is influenced by ongoing factors like sun exposure and hormones, occasional maintenance sessions are a normal part of long-term skin care, not a sign treatment failed.
No. Depending on your diagnosis, chemical peels, Dermagenesis, PDRN, exosome therapy, or PRP may be recommended instead of or alongside laser, particularly for melasma or more sensitive skin.
Melasma requires a more careful, gradual approach than other pigmentation types, and isn't always the ideal candidate for laser as a first step. Your consultation determines the safest, most effective path for your specific pattern.
