How To Get Rid of Hyperpigmentation

By Morgan Merrill • March 22, 2024

Hyperpigmentation is discoloration of the skin. It can happen for various reasons and often appears as age spots, sun spots or liver spots. Most people aren’t as concerned with the cause of hyperpigmentation as they are focused on getting rid of it. Fortunately, there are skin treatments – such as our Advanced Facial with Signature Chemical Peel – that diminishes the appearance of hyperpigmentation. In some cases, discoloration may even go away completely. Our Advanced Facial Treatments in Sacramento, California offer effective solutions and skin peels that can help with your hyperpigmentation, age spots and skin damage. In this blog, we will answer these questions: What is Hyperpigmentation? What Are The Causes of Hyperpigmentation? How You Can Reduce Hyperpigmentation? How Can Our Advanced Facial Treatments Help You? What is Hyperpigmentation? Skin cells produce melanin, a substance that gives skin its color. When skin cells become damaged, they may overproduce melanin. The excess melanin makes parts of the skin look darker. Hyperpigmentation can occur in one part of the body or across several parts of the body. It can appear as black, brown, red, pink, or gray patches. It can occur in people of any culture or ethnicity. The condition does not cause pain or itchiness, but it may be accompanied by dry, rough-textured skin. What are the Causes of Hyperpigmentation? While the root cause of hyperpigmentation is not always known, here are some common causes: Hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy or puberty Excessive sun exposure Adrenal disorders in which the body does not make enough cortisol Medications that cause sensitivity to light Skin injuries such as cuts, burns, and acne Thyroid disorders Melasma Vitamin deficiencies Genetic conditions such as freckles How to Get Rid of Hyperpigmentation While hyperpigmentation can be difficult to treat, here are several treatments that are often effective. Peels Peels use chemicals to remove the top layer of the skin. Some peels go deeper and target the middle layer as well. Removing skin layers also gets rid of signs of damage and aging. It can reduce the look of hyperpigmentation, acne, wrinkles, and dull skin. Brighten, tighten and rejuvenate your skin with our Signature Chemical Peel! This Advanced Facial Treatment reverses the visible effects of skin damage in two key ways. Our customized peels can power away dull, dead cells to illuminate the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, clogged pores, and blemishes. Plasma Lifting Facial Rejuvenation Treatment Our Plasma Lifting Treatment is the first of its kind in the skincare industry, penetrating 13K volts of plasma through the skin to stimulate collagen and remold the skin’s cellular structure.

No downtime. Recommended in a series of 4-8 treatments for optimal results. At Home Skin Care Products At your first treatment we will recommend the correct at-home skin care products to help fade signs of hyperpigmentation. They should be used alongside our Advanced Facial Treatments to produce the desired results. New to peels? Our Advanced Facial with Home Care is for you. This treatment gives us the chance to get to know your skin and plan the best peel treatment plan for you.
