When Madam S walked into Marissa Aesthetic for the first time, she kept adjusting her tudung, trying to cover the sides of her cheeks.
“I’ve tried so many creams. Some made it worse. I’m tired of hiding my face,” she said softly.
For years she struggled with:
Dark patches on both cheeks
Uneven skin tone around the mouth and jawline
Make-up that never sat smoothly because the colour was patchy
Like many women in their 30s–50s, she thought pigmentation was something she simply had to accept… or “tutup dengan foundation sahaja”.
But deep inside, she missed her old skin — clearer, brighter, and even-toned.
That’s when we introduced her to Red Light Pigmentation Therapy at Marissa Aesthetic.
Before any treatment, we listened.
She shared about:
Years of sun exposure without proper sunscreen
Hormonal changes after pregnancy
Trying random brightening products from social media
We then performed a professional skin analysis and Face Mapping to see:
Where the pigment sat (surface vs deeper layers)
Which areas were most reactive
How healthy her skin barrier was
For the first time, she saw her pigmentation explained on-screen — not just judged as “kulit gelap” but understood as a treatable condition.
“I finally feel like someone is taking my problem seriously,” she said.
Instead of peeling or harsh bleaching, we recommended a series of Red Light Pigmentation sessions.
We explained that this is:
Not laser
Not bleaching
A gentle red light that works inside the skin cells
During her session, she lay back on the treatment bed, eyes closed, while the therapist gently positioned the red light over her pigmented areas.
“It felt warm and soothing, not painful at all,” she later described.
Behind the scenes, the red light was:
Calming overactive melanocytes (pigment cells)
Boosting cellular repair so old stained cells could be replaced faster
Supporting collagen and barrier health, so her skin could heal more evenly
No peeling.
No burning.
No “putih pelik”.
Just a quiet, deep repair process starting from within.
After a few sessions, something subtle but powerful happened.
At first, she noticed:
Her foundation shade looked more even
The edges of the dark patches were less harsh
Her skin felt smoother and less “muddy”
Then, one morning as she was getting ready for work, she realised she was using less concealer than usual.
“I looked in the mirror and thought—eh, it’s lighter. For the first time, I didn’t rush to cover it,” she told us during her review.
By the end of her protocol:
✨ The dark patches had visibly softened
✨ Her overall skin tone looked brighter and more balanced
✨ Friends started asking, “What skincare are you using now? Your face looks fresher.”
Most importantly, she said:
“I don’t feel embarrassed anymore. I can go out with just light makeup — or sometimes none at all. I feel like my skin belongs to me again.”
Madam S is not alone.
Many of our clients come to us after:
Wasting money on random “whitening” products
Experiencing irritation from strong acids
Feeling judged or dismissed when they ask for help

We listen to your story
We map your skin properly
We explain what kind of pigmentation you have
We design a Red Light plan that respects your skin barrier and your lifestyle
No miracle claims.
