The treatment

Our programme combines professional chemical peels and prescription-strength skincare to target stubborn pigmentation and prevent new spots from forming. Each plan is personalised by our skin specialists, who monitor progress and adjust treatments as needed for the best results.

We use a variety of clinically proven active ingredients to tackle hyperpigmentation effectively, including:

  • Tretinoin
  • Hydroquinone
  • Kojic acid
  • Ascorbic acid
  • Arbutin

Correct product use and regular specialist review are essential for results. Over-the-counter skin lightening products alone are unlikely to be effective and could worsen pigmentation or cause additional skin issues.

At our Marylebone clinic, we also offer Cosmelan®, a professional depigmentation treatment for melasma and stubborn pigmentation. Cosmelan works by regulating melanin production, lightening existing dark spots, and preventing new pigmentation from appearing. When combined with a personalised homecare plan, it delivers long-lasting, visible results.

For optimal outcomes, the programme includes:

  • Pre- and post-programme skin analysis
  • Consultation and review with a specialist as often as required
  • Skin preparation with an in-clinic chemical peel
  • Specialist home-use skincare kit, tailored to your needs

Regular monitoring ensures your skin responds safely and effectively, helping you achieve a clearer, more even complexion.

I’ve had several procedures done at Story Clinic and I can’t recommend them highly enough. What truly sets them apart is their integrity. Their advice is always honest, and it’s clear that their priority is your well-being, not profit.

I just had my first session of polynucleotides with Dr Sophie and the entire process was so lovely from start to finish. I had a thorough consultation, treatment was painless, and I finished feeling comfortable, relaxed, and ready to book my next session!

I couldn’t recommend Story more highly. They are a friendly, professional and incredibly knowledgeable skin care clinic, who offer a wide range of treatments. They make you feel very comfortable and relaxed and give results that show. Love it!

I've been coming to Story clinic in Southwell for years. Dr Heer is very professional, friendly and the clinic is doctor-led - it's very reassuring that they are level 7 trained, qualified, and knowledgeable. I am very pleased with my treatment.

I’ve recently had lip and cheek filler by Dr Harpreet in the Southwell Clinic. First of all the clinic is beautiful, it feels very homely, and the decor is stunning. I would absolutely recommend Dr Harpreet and Story Clinics and will definitely head back when I need my top-up.
