What is dermal pigment?

Deeper pigment, patient plan.

Dermal pigment — such as Hori's nevus (acquired bilateral nevus of Ota-like macules) — sits deeper in the skin than freckles, appearing as grey-brown patches usually over the cheekbones. It needs specific laser wavelengths that reach the dermis and a series of sessions spaced over months. A board-certified director distinguishes it from melasma (they often coexist and are treated differently) using imaging, then stages treatment realistically to clear it while protecting the skin.

Our philosophy

Since 1984, we have believed the same truth: diagnosis first, then the gentlest treatment that works.
