Charak
Charak Pigmento Ointment is a traditional Ayurvedic topical formulation crafted to support an even skin tone and a naturally radiant complexion. Centred on Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) oil and seed, it pairs time-honoured botanicals such as Chakramarda, Khadira and Neem to nurture the appearance of uneven or lightened patches. Applied to the skin, it works to encourage clarity, comfort and a balanced, healthy-looking surface tone.
Ayurvedic Significance
In Ayurvedic understanding, healthy skin colour reflects the balance of Bhrajaka Pitta within the Twak (skin) dhatu and the nourishment carried by the Rakta dhatu. Uneven tone is read as a disturbance of Pitta and Kapha that unsettles the skin's natural Varnya, its complexion-giving quality. Bakuchi is the classical Varnya and Kushtaghna botanical, valued for restoring even colour to the surface. Supported by Raktashodhana (blood-purifying) herbs such as Khadira and Neem, this ointment is designed to settle aggravated doshas locally and coax the skin toward its natural, uniform radiance.
Key Benefits
Even Tone Support: A Bakuchi-rich formula helps nurture uniform skin colour across uneven or lightened patches.
Complexion Radiance (Varnya): Traditional botanicals encourage a naturally bright, healthy-looking surface.
Skin Clarity and Comfort: Neem and Khadira support a clean, comfortable feel on the applied area.
Locally Balancing: Chakramarda and Chitraka help settle aggravated Pitta and Kapha at the skin surface.
Time-Honoured Topical Care: A classical external application rooted in Ayurvedic skin tradition.

Charak Pigmento Ointment is an Ayurvedic ointment traditionally used to support the skin in vitiligo, the condition of acquired white patches. Built on bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) oil with vernonia, chitraka, neem, and purified sulphur in a washable base, it is traditionally valued for supporting the skin's natural pigment-forming process and the look of more even skin colour over patches. It is applied to the affected areas and paired with brief sun exposure, on medical advice. It is for external use.

+How does Pigmento Ointment work?
Pigmento Ointment is traditionally used externally to support the skin in vitiligo. Its bakuchi (Psoralea) base is traditionally valued for supporting the skin's melanocytes (the natural pigment-forming cells) and, with brief morning sunlight, encouraging the look of more even pigment over white patches; other herbs support clean, healthy skin. This is supportive, traditional care, and results vary and take time; vitiligo is a medical condition that should be diagnosed and managed by a doctor or dermatologist, often alongside phototherapy. It is not intended to treat any disease.
+How do you use Pigmento Ointment?
Apply the ointment twice a day to the affected (white-patch) areas, and brief exposure to morning sunlight after application is traditionally advised; the therapy can be combined with medical phototherapy. A few pointers:
Bakuchi increases sensitivity to sunlight, so keep sun exposure brief (around 10 minutes) and as advised.
Classical texts also suggest avoiding sour, curd-based, and incompatible foods during the course.
Avoid the eyes; for external use. This is a 50g tube.
+Is Pigmento Ointment a cure for vitiligo?
No. Pigmento is traditionally used to support the skin's natural pigmentation in vitiligo, but it is not a guaranteed cure; vitiligo is a complex condition, results vary from person to person, and treatment is gradual. It should be diagnosed and managed by a doctor or dermatologist, often alongside medical phototherapy, rather than self-treated. Use Pigmento as a supportive, traditional measure within that medical care. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

+Are there any precautions with Pigmento Ointment?
Pigmento Ointment contains bakuchi (Psoralea), which increases the skin's sensitivity to sunlight, so a few cautions matter. It is for external use only; avoid the eyes and broken skin, do not swallow it, and keep sun exposure brief and as advised to avoid burning. Do a patch test first if your skin is sensitive. Vitiligo should be managed by a doctor or dermatologist, and those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a condition should consult their physician. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
