After a summer of sunshine, does your skin look a little duller or more uneven than usual? You may have noticed pigmentation, rough texture or a loss of radiance.

Autumn offers an opportunity to reassess your skin and choose care that suits its current needs. At Dr Maki Aesthetic Clinic, we offer IPL, Reverse Peeling and PRX-T33 as possible treatment options, with suitability assessed during your consultation.

What Has Summer Left Behind?

After summer, you may notice changes in the appearance and feel of your skin, including:
・Dullness and reduced radiance
・Uneven skin tone
・Sun-related pigmentation
・Rough or uneven texture

These concerns do not all call for the same treatment. Understanding your skin condition is the first step towards choosing an appropriate approach—particularly if you are prone to melasma.

IPL: For Brighter, More Even-Looking Skin

IPL, or intense pulsed light, may help improve the appearance of sun-induced pigmentation, uneven skin tone and dullness.

If pigmentation has become more noticeable after summer, IPL may be one option to discuss during your consultation. The aim is a brighter, more even-looking complexion.

However, IPL is not suitable for every skin concern. If you have melasma or are unsure what is causing your pigmentation, your skin should be assessed before choosing treatment.

Reverse Peeling: An Option for Melasma-Prone Skin

If melasma has become more noticeable over summer, choosing a treatment that suits your skin is especially important. IPL may not always be appropriate.

Reverse Peeling is another option that may help improve the appearance of pigmentation, dullness and uneven skin tone.

At your consultation, we will assess your skin and discuss whether Reverse Peeling is suitable for your concerns. Having melasma does not automatically mean that a particular treatment is right for you.

PRX-T33: For Smoother, More Radiant-Looking Skin

PRX-T33, also known as the Massage Peel, may help improve the appearance of dullness, uneven texture and fine lines.

It offers an option for those looking to refresh the appearance of their skin with minimal downtime. Individual responses can vary, and suitability will be assessed during your consultation.

If your main concerns are texture and a lack of radiance, PRX-T33 may be worth discussing as part of your treatment plan.

Which Treatment Is Right for You?

The right choice depends on your skin condition and the concerns you would like to address.

Rather than choosing a treatment by name alone, a consultation allows us to assess your skin and discuss an appropriate approach. This is particularly important if you are prone to melasma or have noticed changes in your pigmentation.

We will explain the expected benefits, potential risks and aftercare of any recommended treatment so you can make an informed decision.
