Uneven skin tone can be caused by years of sun exposure, hormonal changes, post-inflammatory pigmentation or the natural ageing process. Treating pigmentation takes consistency, but the right skincare can make a noticeable difference over time.

Pigmentation rarely improves overnight. Long-term improvements come from combining effective skincare with daily sun protection and a consistent routine.
At Dr Ed Robinson Clinics, we recommend products that work with your skin rather than against it. Clear Fx is ideal for patients looking to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone without prescription-strength hydroquinone. Used consistently alongside SPF and the wider Nu-Derm® Fx System, it helps reveal a brighter, healthier-looking complexion over time.
7% Arbutin
A naturally derived skin brightening ingredient that helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone for a brighter complexion.

A powerful antioxidant that helps protect against environmental damage while promoting a more radiant-looking complexion.
Vitamin E
Helps defend the skin against free radical damage while supporting overall skin health.
Lactic Acid
A gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exfoliates dull surface skin cells to reveal smoother, more even-looking skin.

Maintaining brighter, healthier-looking skin
After cleansing and toning, apply a thin layer evenly over the face or to the areas recommended by your clinician.
Use morning and evening as part of your skincare routine. Follow with moisturiser, and during the day always finish with a broad spectrum SPF, as UV protection is essential when treating pigmentation.
When treating pigmentation, sunscreen is just as important as the treatment itself. Even the most advanced brightening ingredients struggle to maintain results if your skin is exposed to unprotected UV light. Daily SPF, patience and consistency are the foundations of achieving a brighter, more even-looking complexion.
