A clinically led approach to pigmentation
The Fade™ is Temple Clinic’s signature pigmentation management programme, developed for people wanting to improve pigmentation, uneven skin tone and overall skin quality.
It combines targeted homecare with a carefully staged programme of professional skin treatments, medical-grade LED phototherapy and Laser Genesis.
Rather than using increasingly aggressive treatments according to a predetermined schedule, we assess your skin throughout the programme.
Treatment is progressed according to how your skin is actually responding.
Your skin determines the pace of treatment — not the calendar.
What are we trying to achieve?
The Fade is designed to:
- reduce visible pigmentation
- create a brighter, more even complexion
- reduce inflammation
- support healthy skin-barrier function
- encourage more stable pigment behaviour
- stimulate collagen
- improve skin quality and resilience
- reduce the risk of recurrent pigmentation
Homecare is part of the treatment
Successful pigmentation treatment doesn’t happen only when you are in the clinic.
Your homecare programme is designed to support the skin every day by targeting factors involved in pigmentation, including oxidative stress, inflammation, skin turnover, pigment production and UV exposure.
We therefore normally prepare the skin for a minimum of four weeks before beginning the clinical phase of The Fade.
This isn’t simply skincare added to your treatment programme.
It is part of your treatment programme.
What does The Fade involve?
The Fade consists of six staged clinic treatments incorporating Laser Genesis alongside three more intensive skin-recovery treatments.
These combine carefully selected professional skin treatments, LED phototherapy and Laser Genesis to progressively improve pigmentation while supporting skin recovery.
We deliberately don’t follow a fixed escalation protocol.
At every stage we consider pigmentation, inflammation, sensitivity, barrier health and how your skin recovered from its previous treatment before deciding what it needs next.
The Fade™ programme: £1,395
Recommended homecare is purchased separately and tailored following consultation.
The Fade Elite™
When visible pigmentation needs more intensive correction
The Fade Elite™ takes the same skin-first philosophy and adds IPL for more intensive correction of visible pigmentation and superficial vascular change in suitable Fitzpatrick I–III skin types.
IPL can be particularly effective for visible sun damage, freckles, lentigines, diffuse pigmentation and some superficial vascular lesions.
But IPL still addresses only part of the problem.
Our objective is to improve the environment of the skin around the pigmentation as well as treating the pigmentation itself.
The Fade Elite therefore alternates skin-recovery treatments with our 2D Facial combining LimeLight IPL and Laser Genesis.
This allows us to progressively correct visible pigmentation while continuing to calm, rehabilitate and strengthen the skin.
