Dark Spots Removal Treatment in Surat – Jhaiya (Melasma) Treatment

October 13, 2026

Dark patches on the face, often called jhaiya or "kale dhabbe", are one of the most common skin concerns. This short video from Elegance Clinic, Surat explains dark spots removal treatment in Surat, why these spots appear, and how the right treatment is chosen after a skin assessment.

What Are Dark Spots and Jhaiya?

Dark spots are areas of skin that become darker than the surrounding skin because of extra melanin, the pigment that gives skin its colour. Jhaiya is the common term for melasma, a type of pigmentation that appears as brown or grey-brown patches, usually on the cheeks, forehead, nose and upper lip.

Common Types of Facial Pigmentation

  • Melasma (jhaiya): Symmetrical patches linked to sun exposure, hormones and genetics.
  • Sun spots: Small, flat brown spots on sun-exposed areas.
  • Post-inflammatory pigmentation: Dark marks left behind after acne, burns or skin injury.
  • Freckles: Small spots that darken with sun exposure.

What Causes Dark Spots on the Face?

  • Sun exposure, the most common trigger
  • Hormonal changes during pregnancy, or with hormonal pills
  • Acne, pimples or skin injury
  • Family history
  • Use of unsuitable creams, especially steroid-containing creams used without a doctor's advice

Dark Spots Removal Treatment Options at Elegance Clinic

The treatment depends on the type of pigmentation, how deep it is and the patient's skin type. A plan may include one or more of these:

  • Laser treatment: Laser energy targets the excess pigment and helps lighten the spots over a series of sessions. Read more about laser treatment for pigmentation.
  • Laser skin toning: Gentle laser sessions that help even out overall skin tone. Read more about laser skin toning.
  • Chemical peels: Medical-grade peels remove the top layer of pigmented skin and encourage fresh skin to form.
  • Prescribed skincare: Doctor-prescribed creams and daily sun protection support the treatment and help prevent new spots.

What Results Can You Expect?

Most dark spots lighten gradually over several sessions rather than in one visit. Melasma in particular can be stubborn and may come back with sun exposure or hormonal changes, so regular sunscreen and maintenance care are an important part of keeping results.

Avoid Self-Treatment With Unknown Creams

Many "fairness" or quick-result creams contain steroids. They may lighten spots for a short time but can thin the skin and make pigmentation worse in the long run. It is safer to have the skin examined by a doctor before starting any cream.
