Uneven skin tone, stubborn pigmentation, melasma, and dark spots can make the skin appear dull or patchy. These concerns may develop due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, or other factors that affect melanin production. While topical skincare products may help manage mild pigmentation, some people may benefit from professional dermatological treatments. The Cosmelan peel in Mumbai is a depigmentation treatment designed to help reduce the appearance of certain types of hyperpigmentation and promote a more even-looking complexion.
