The treatment
Tan Removal
Tan Removal is a targeted skin treatment that works by combining enzyme or chemical exfoliation with tyrosinase-inhibiting brightening actives — kojic acid, alpha arbutin, and vitamin C — to lift melanin-rich dead skin cells and suppress new pigment production at the source. Sun tan affects only the uppermost skin layers, making it highly responsive to treatment. Bengaluru's year-round sun, long commutes, and outdoor exposure make this a maintenance treatment rather than a one-off fix. Results are visible from session one and compound with each monthly appointment. Zero downtime.
Sound familiar?
You've been layering brightening creams for months. Bengaluru's sun wins every time. Your skin tone is uneven — lighter where covered, visibly darker where exposed — and the daily commute undoes whatever progress the skincare makes.
Why choose us
What You Get at Golden Ratio
De-tan formulation selected to your skin tone and tan depth — not a generic product applied to everyone
Tyrosinase-inhibiting actives (vitamin C, alpha arbutin) infused post-exfoliation to suppress new pigment production at the source
Formulation strength calibrated for Indian skin tones — over-treating darker skin causes hyperpigmentation, not brightness
Visible lightening from session one with zero downtime — return to work the same day
Face, neck, and arms treated to their specific exposure level — not one uniform protocol
SPF protocol given at the close of every session — because results without daily SPF are temporary
Before Your Appointment
72 hours before
- Pause all active exfoliants — retinol, AHAs, BHAs, or any acid-based products on the area to be treated
48 hours before
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure or sunbed sessions
Day of your appointment
- Arrive without SPF, body lotion, or makeup on the areas to be treated
- Stay well-hydrated — internal hydration improves how brightening actives absorb and perform
Why these rules exist
72 hours before
Actives thin and compromise the skin barrier before the session. Applying de-tan formulations on already-sensitised skin increases the risk of irritation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — particularly on Indian skin tones.
48 hours before
Fresh sun exposure requires reducing treatment strength significantly, which limits visible results per session. Sunburned skin cannot be treated safely and will need to be rescheduled.
Day of your appointment
Product residue forms a physical barrier between skin and the de-tan formulation. Bare, clean skin produces the most visible result from each session.
At Your Appointment
Skin Assessment
Skin tone, tan depth, and sensitivity assessed before selecting formulation strength and protocol. Darker skin tones require lower-strength actives to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — this is evaluated before every session, not assumed.
Deep Cleanse
Skin cleansed with a pH-balanced cleanser to remove sunscreen, sweat, and surface impurities. Product residue at this stage creates a barrier that reduces how effectively the de-tan formulation absorbs.
De-Tan Application
A targeted enzyme-based or chemical exfoliant is applied and processed for a timed period. Enzymes (typically fruit-derived) dissolve the proteins binding melanin-rich dead cells to the surface — gently lifting the darkened layer responsible for the uneven tone.
Steam & Exfoliation
Gentle steam or ultrasonic exfoliation opens the skin and accelerates the shedding of loosened dead cells — maximising absorption of the brightening serum applied next.
Brightening Serum Infusion
A vitamin C and alpha arbutin serum is applied and infused to actively inhibit tyrosinase — the enzyme that triggers melanin production. This extends the session's brightening effect beyond what exfoliation alone can achieve.
Soothing Mask
A cooling, anti-inflammatory mask reduces surface sensitivity, calms the skin barrier, and seals the brightening actives in.
SPF Application
Treatment closes with SPF 50+ applied to all treated areas. This step is not skipped — treated skin is acutely photosensitive, and immediate sun exposure triggers an accelerated re-pigmentation response.
After You Leave
Immediately after
Skin may feel warm and appear mildly pink — this settles within 1–2 hours. SPF 50+ is applied before you leave the studio. Avoid washing the treated area for at least 2 hours.
First 48 hours
Apply SPF 50+ every 2–3 hours if outdoors — treated skin is acutely photosensitive. Melanin production is actively suppressed after the session, and any UV exposure triggers an accelerated re-pigmentation response. Stay out of peak sun (10am–4pm) where possible.
Days 2–7
Use a brightening moisturiser with niacinamide or vitamin C daily to compound the treatment's effect. Continue SPF 50+ without fail. No scrubbing, loofah, or mechanical exfoliation — skin is still sensitised.
Ongoing maintenance
Sessions every 3–4 weeks produce consistent, cumulative correction. Bengaluru's year-round sun means results fade without maintenance — daily SPF 50+ is the single most effective at-home step. Without it, each session corrects what the sun undoes in days.
What can ruin your results
Avoid these at all costs during healing
Skip SPF after treatment
Post-treatment skin has its melanin defenses temporarily suppressed — UV exposure within 24–48 hours triggers aggressive re-pigmentation. One unprotected afternoon in Bengaluru's sun can reverse an entire session's results.
Exfoliate within 3 days
The de-tan formulation already exfoliated the skin — additional exfoliation on sensitised cells causes inflammation and risks post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation on Indian skin tones.
Scrub with a loofah or exfoliating gloves
Abrasive mechanical scrubbing removes treated cells before they shed naturally and can cause micro-tears on sensitive post-treatment skin.
Steam or sauna within 48 hours
Heat dilates blood vessels and triggers inflammatory signals in freshly treated skin — directly counteracting the brightening effect of the session.
Treat results as permanent from one session
De-tan works in progressive layers — surface cells are lifted, but deeper melanin continues producing. Regular sessions every 3–4 weeks, combined with daily SPF, sustain results. Skipping either breaks the cycle.

Safety Standards We Follow
- ✅ Formulation strength adjusted per skin tone — over-treating dark skin causes hyperpigmentation, not brightness
- ✅ Enzyme-based formulations used for first-time or sensitive clients before progressing to chemical exfoliants
- ✅ Anti-inflammatory mask applied after every session to calm the skin barrier
- ✅ SPF 50+ applied before leaving the studio — never skipped
- ✅ No bleaching agents or hydroquinone — brightening achieved through exfoliation and tyrosinase inhibition only
Who Should Avoid Tan Removal
- – Active sunburn or broken skin in the treatment area — session must be rescheduled
- – Open wounds, eczema flare-ups, or active rashes in the treatment area
- – Isotretinoin (Accutane) users — skin too sensitised for exfoliation
- – Pregnant or breastfeeding women — some brightening actives are contraindicated
- – Anyone unwilling to commit to daily SPF 50+ — results will not hold without it

"I honestly didn’t go in thinking I needed microblading at all. I had originally met Priyanka when I went for a HydraFacial (which was fantastic, by the way), and she suggested it. At first I wasn't sure, but I'm so glad I trusted her. The best part is that the brows don't look "done" or artificial. They're just a better version of my natural brows. It’s one of those subtle changes that makes your whole face look more balanced and put together, without anyone being able to pinpoint exactly why. Also, Priyanka is genuinely lovely to spend time with. The procedure takes a few hours, and I thought it would feel long or uncomfortable, but it was surprisingly easy. It wasn't painful, and chatting with her made the time fly by. She's incredibly skilled, has a great eye for what suits your face, and never pushes you towards an overdone look. Very happy with the result and would definitely recommend her."
