Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition characterized by the darkening of specific areas of the skin due to the overproduction of melanin, the pigment responsible for coloring human hair, skin, and eyes. This condition can affect individuals of all skin tones, though it tends to be more noticeable in those with darker skin, as they naturally have higher levels of melanin.

Melanin acts as the body’s natural sun protectant. When skin is exposed to prolonged ultraviolet (UV) rays, the melanocytes—the cells that produce melanin—are stimulated to generate more pigment. This increase in melanin results in a “tan,” which serves to protect the skin from sun damage. However, this protective mechanism can sometimes lead to long-term damage, manifesting later as uneven patches of hyperpigmentation, commonly referred to as age spots, sun spots, or freckles.

The most prevalent forms of hyperpigmentation include:

• Melasma (Chloasma): Often triggered by hormonal changes, such as those occurring during pregnancy or with oral contraceptive use.
• Solar Lentigos (Sun Spots): Brown spots that develop on sun-exposed areas like the face, neck, and backs of the hands.
• Freckles: Small, concentrated spots of pigment that can appear on individuals with lighter skin tones, often exacerbated by sun exposure.

Among these, solar lentigos are the most common pigmentation concerns we treat. Fortunately, all forms of hyperpigmentation can be effectively managed with laser therapy and other advanced treatment options available at our clinic.

Our latest generation laser technology is revolutionizing the way we address unwanted skin discoloration. Specifically designed to target and eliminate brown age spots, freckles, and other pigmented lesions, our Laser Pigment Removal treatment is non-invasive and delivers impressive results with minimal side effects.

Key Benefits:

• Effective Treatment: For optimal results, we recommend 1-4 treatment sessions to successfully reduce or eliminate brown age spots and freckles, providing you with a more even skin tone.

• Long-Lasting Results: The spots removed through our laser procedure typically do not recur. However, it’s essential to note that new hyperpigmentation may develop due to factors such as sun exposure or hormonal changes.

• Comprehensive Care for Melasma: Conditions like melasma may require additional treatments. While melasma can return, maintaining your results is achievable with appropriate homecare products and regular laser procedures.

• Rejuvenated Appearance: After completing the recommended sessions, your skin will look rejuvenated—brighter, cleaner, and smoother—enhancing your overall complexion and confidence.

You will meet with one of our providers for an in depth discussion about your pigmentation. Your skin will be examined and you will be given an opportunity to ask questions and to discuss your medical history. A patch test involves applying the laser to a small area of your skin in order to ascertain you are suitable for the treatment and to check that no adverse reactions are apparent.

• If you have had a history of herpes simplex virus and are scheduled for facial treatment, prophylactic antiviral therapy may need to be prescribed.
• The intended treatment area should not be exposed to sunlight or tanning booth light for 14 days prior to treatment.
• Patients who are taking the medication Accutane should not have a Laser Skin Tightening Treatment until at least six months after they stop using the drug.
• Please discontinue using any retinol products (Renova, Differin), all alpha hydroxyl acid products (those containing glycolic or lactic acid), salicylic acid products and other topical acne medications such as benzoyl peroxide 1 to 2 weeks prior to your appointment if you are receiving laser hair removal on the areas where those topicals are being applied. This can make your skin more susceptible to damage from the laser.
• Please avoid antibiotics and/or any photosensitizing medications during the time of treatment.  For patients who are on antibiotics, please allow two weeks from the last day of your medication to come in for an appointment. If taking any hormone stimulating or anti-depression medication, please notify our technician prior to treatment.  Many of these medications can make you photosensitive and susceptible to damage from the lasers.
• Pregnant women should postpone treatment until after they give birth.
• If you develop a fever or other illness before your appointment you must reschedule.
• Patients with tanned or naturally dark skin may experience changes in skin pigmentation after treatment and may not be good candidates for the procedure. You will need a skin evaluation and discuss possible side effects before opting for this procedure.

The eyes are covered with protective eyewear and a thin layer of gel is applied to the treatment area. The laser is placed on your skin and you will be aware of a series of bright flashes as the laser is moved over the treatment area.

Laser pigmentation removal is not painful for the vast majority of people; some report a minor prickling or tingling sensation but this is only while the laser is in action.

• Most patients experience an initial darkening of the pigmented areas immediately after the treatment. This reaction is a confirmation that the pigment was successfully targeted by the laser. Over the next day or two the pigmented areas develop a mottled brown look that will gradually fade away over the following week or two. Any of the pigmented areas can be easily camouflaged with base while the effects of the laser fades.
• After your treatment is completed please avoid direct sun exposure on the area which has been treated for 2 weeks.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and hot environments for at least 24 hours. This is due to the effect which heat can have on capillaries.
• Your technician may suggest using Aloe Vera or an ice-pack on the area that has been treated to calm down any redness.
• For most patients, between 1-4 treatments are required depending on the size and damage of the pigmented area, scheduling one treatment every 4 weeks.  A 50-90% reduction in pigmentation can be expected.
• If the underlying cause of the problem persist, like continual excessive sun exposure, then the pigmentation can reappear over time. Every patient is therefore given a post treatment plan to minimize the chance of the pigmentation returning.
