The Best For Your Skin
Dark spots are not all the same. Sun spots, age spots, melasma and post-acne pigmentation can look similar, but they do not always need the same treatment.
At Gustil Aesthetics we start with your skin. We assess visible pigmentation, skin type, sensitivity and related concerns, then select the most appropriate non-invasive treatment route or combination.
Dark spots may appear gradually after years of sun exposure, remain after acne or inflammation, or develop under hormonal influence. The pattern, colour and context matter because they can change the most appropriate treatment approach.
People often search for laser pigmentation removal, but not every pigment concern needs a laser. At Gustil we use Alpha 3D IPL for selected superficial pigmentation and combine this with other non-invasive skin treatments where the concern is broader than one isolated dark spot.
Intense pulsed light can be used for selected superficial pigmentation, sun spots and signs of photodamage. Suitability depends on pigment type, skin type and recent sun exposure. The treatment is suitable for all skin colours and types through personalized sessions. A single spot starts from €75.
A multi-technology facial combining exfoliation, oxygenation, infusion, Radiofrequency and ultrasound. It is customized with our illuminate OxyPod. Especially for uneven pigmentation together with dullness, texture, dehydration or visible skin ageing.
A needle-free treatment focused on hydration, skin quality and targeted active ingredients, combined with LED. It is customized with our orange LED and special JetCare. Suitable for pigmentation alongside sensitivity, dehydration, rejuvenation and post-inflammatory changes.
We assess pigmentation together with skin type, sensitivity, inflammation and other visible skin concerns.
We choose the treatment or combination that fits the type of pigmentation and the wider condition of the skin.
Daily UV protection and targeted skincare help support results and reduce triggers for new pigmentation.
Choosing a treatment only by what you see in the mirror is not always enough. Gustil uses the Observe 520X Pro skin analysis as part of the assessment and treatment planning process.
Results vary depending on pigment type, skin type, treatment choice and number of sessions.
Pigmentation can often be improved significantly, but the pace depends on pigment type, treatment route and whether the underlying trigger is still active.
Pigmentation is the natural colouring of the skin. Hyperpigmentation happens when certain areas contain more melanin and become darker than the surrounding skin.
The visible marks are commonly called dark spots or pigmentation spots. Causes can include UV exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, acne, skin injury and certain medications. Medium and darker skin tones can be more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation, which makes careful treatment selection especially important.
Flat brown spots that often develop on areas exposed to UV over many years, such as the face, hands and décolleté. Selected superficial sun spots may respond well to targeted light-based treatment when the skin and pigment are suitable.
| What you notice | What may be involved | Likely Gustil route | Why assessment matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Isolated brown sun spots | Superficial UV-related pigmentation | Often analysis + Alpha 3D IPL assessment | Not every dark lesion is suitable for cosmetic light treatment |
| Dark marks after acne | Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation | Inflammation control + HydraJet / OxyGeneo where suitable | New irritation can trigger additional pigmentation |
| Symmetrical brown patches | Melasma or hormonally influenced pigmentation | Careful assessment, skincare and personalised treatment strategy | Heat, hormones and UV can influence melasma |
| Uneven tone + dullness | Superficial discolouration plus skin quality concerns | OxyGeneo / HydraJet / broader skin programme | The goal is wider than removing one isolated mark |
Assessment of pigmentation, redness, hydration, texture, sun damage and other skin characteristics, followed by a personalised plan.
For selected local pigmentation when IPL is suitable for your skin and pigment type.
OxyGeneo, HydraJet LED and other options have their own treatment times and prices. We recommend what best fits your skin.
Pigmentation management does not stop after a clinic treatment. UV protection, targeted active ingredients and barrier support can all influence how well the skin maintains an even tone.
A complete homecare routine designed to support brightening, pigment control and prevention while complementing professional treatments.
Your pigmentation may sit alongside sensitivity, acne, dehydration or visible ageing. In that case we can build a personalised routine rather than use one fixed package.
A new, changing, irregular, bleeding or otherwise suspicious pigmented lesion should first be assessed medically by a GP or dermatologist before cosmetic treatment is considered.
We assess pigmentation together with the wider condition of your skin.
We can choose among several non-invasive options instead of using one device for everyone.
Treatment and homecare are adapted to skin type, sensitivity and goals.
We look beyond fading one spot and also address prevention and maintenance.
Pigmentation is the natural colouring of the skin. Hyperpigmentation means some areas become darker because more melanin is present. Dark spots are the visible marks people commonly notice.
Melasma is a specific form of hyperpigmentation that often appears symmetrically on the face and can be influenced by hormones, UV and heat. It often needs a more cautious long-term strategy than an isolated sun spot.
That depends on pigment type, skin type, sensitivity and other concerns. Selected sun spots may respond well to IPL, while PIH, sensitivity or broader skin quality issues may need a different route.
No. IPL uses broad-spectrum intense pulsed light, while a laser uses a specific wavelength. Both may be used in pigmentation treatment, but they are different technologies. Gustil uses Alpha 3D IPL for selected pigment concerns.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation can fade gradually, but it may take time. Controlling active acne and avoiding new irritation can be just as important as directly treating the pigment.
Yes, but treatment choice and settings need to be selected carefully. Medium and darker skin tones can be more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation, so assessment is especially important.
Yes. UV exposure, hormones, inflammation and skin irritation can trigger new pigmentation. Daily sun protection and suitable homecare are important for maintenance.
A new, changing, asymmetrical, irregular, bleeding or otherwise suspicious lesion should first be medically assessed before cosmetic treatment.
You do not need to decide that yourself. Start with a professional Skin Analysis and Beauty Coach session. We assess your skin and explain which treatment route makes sense for your pigmentation, skin type and goals.
