Hyperpigmentation

Want to Get Rid of Hyperpigmentation?

If you have dark spots of skin anywhere on your body, it can be embarrassing and unsightly. Thankfully, hyperpigmentation is typically nothing serious and you don’t have to worry about how it might impact your health. 

But, if you want to get rid of hyperpigmentation, Slimming Solutions has a variety of treatment options that can get rid of hyperpigmentation and restore your skin to its natural color. 

What is Hyperpigmentation? 

Hyperpigmentation is nothing more than an excess amount of melanin in your skin. Everyone has melanin, and those who have more of it have a darker skin tone. But, when melanin deposits build up in one area, it can cause hyperpigmentation in certain spots. 

If the build-up is significant, you may need hyperpigmentation treatment in order to get rid of the dark, patchy spots and restore your skin to a more even-looking tone. 

What Treatment Options are Available for Hyperpigmentation?

At Slimming Solutions, we offer several different hyperpigmentation treatment solutions that can help to restore your skin without pain and with very little downtime. Some of the most effective treatment options include: 

  • Laser Skin Resurfacing – Our powerful, painless laser shoots through the top layer of skin and into the dermis. While the top layer of skin is not harmed, the short bursts of laser light remove skin layer by layer, until the area of hyperpigmentation is gone. 
  • Chemical Peels – Much like laser skin resurfacing, chemicals peels slough off old, dull skin, and can help to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation or even sunspots. They are made from fruit or milk, so don’t let the ‘chemical’ aspect turn you off. They are completely safe!
  • Microneedling – Microneedling is the process of creating “micro-injuries” to your skin with a small needle. It doesn’t hurt and encourages your skin to naturally produce more collagen and elastin. As a result, your skin begins to repair itself, and can even out the tone and color.
  • IPL FotoFacial RF: Intense Pulse Light treatments are a highly effective means of improving the overall quality of your skin, including improving the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

What Results Will I See?

With any of our hyperpigmentation treatment options, you can see results quickly! With laser skin resurfacing, in particular, you can see results in just a few days with one treatment, but you’ll notice even better results with two. 

No matter which hyperpigmentation treatment you decide on, you will notice the lightening of any dark spots on your skin, instead of large areas of discoloration. 

Is There Any Downtime?

The amount of downtime you experience from a procedure depends on several factors. For example, some people peel more than others after a chemical peel. It may take you a few days of dealing with drying and peeling to feel back to normal. 

The side effects of laser skin resurfacing can sometimes be slight bruising. But, downtime is usually no more than a couple of days. 

With microneedling, there is minimal downtime. Your skin will start to repair itself immediately. While you might see some redness immediately after the procedure, it should go away the next day. 

While hyperpigmentation is nothing to be worried about, you shouldn’t have to live with dark patches of skin if they are embarrassing to you. Contact Slimming Solutions for more information on how our licensed team can help you with your hyperpigmentation treatment.
