About this collection

Pigmentation is one of the most common skin concerns in Sri Lanka and one of the easiest to make worse. Melasma in particular can darken with heat, friction and the wrong laser settings, which is why self-treatment often backfires.

These guides explain how melasma, post-inflammatory pigmentation and sun damage differ, why that distinction changes the treatment, and what a realistic timeline looks like. They are written and reviewed by Dr Dineli, a cosmetic physician practising in Sri Lanka. Sun protection is the one constant across every protocol, and no in-clinic treatment holds without it.
